have had this Russian 125mm F9 achromatic scope for a short while mounted on a Synta HEQ5. The optics are fantastic with pin sharp stars and deep black backgrounds.
Great looking scope! I have heard about it, but can't seem to find anyone selling here in the USA. I have the 100RS and it's a great scope, the 125 should be even better.
(What a way to start your first post on CN! Welcome.

That's a nice looking achro you have. The tapered tube is a bit unusual. Is that a characteristic of Tal scope tubes?

I am not sure but I think the Tal is unique in having a fluted design ???
I will start to draw Mars shortly and will post my results.
Best Regards.
