I got the 12" version about a week and a half ago and had it at the Saskatchewan Summer Star Party at the Cypress Hills Dark Sky preserve and this is one great scope, I teamed it up with an Ethos 13mm and spent two nights from dusk till dawn roaming the galaxy and beyond. It is compact enough that it fit into my Ford escape along with all my camping gear, an EQ6 mount and tripod, my TV102, PST, eyepieces and cameras. I have only one complaint as this scope gives beautiful images and holds collimation well and that is the focuser which is being replaced with an Antares model with 10:1 fine focusing this week and I am adding a Telrad.
