Tak Mewlon 210 and Sky 90 on Giro Alt-Az Mount

This is a good combination...the wide fields of the Sky 90 and its 500mm focal length coupled with the Mewlon 210 (Dall Kirkham Cassegrain design), a 2410mm focal length instrument. Each scope does something the other is incapable of. The 90 goes wide and the 210 goes deep. It's a pleasure using them together.

Very attractive set up, Robert. Is it rock steady on this mount? The Giro has always interested me. DR
