Shopping for a Astroscope for birding and encountered the following three scopes. Though the Skywatcher Evostar 80 ED is the most popular here (thanks to Paul C), should I just rule the other two out?
1) Skywatcher Evostar 80 ED http://www.teleskop-express.de/shop/product_info.php/language/en/info/p1060.html
2) Celestron Omni 102 ED http://cgi.ebay.com/Celestron-Omni-102-ED-OTA-/300399974267?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0#ht_3759wt_1133
3) Celestron Ultima 80 ED OTA http://www.astroshop.eu/celestron-telescope-ap-80-600-ultima-80-ed-ota/p,7900
The Ultima 80ED comes with focuser, diagonal, eyepiece and finder scope. The Celestron Omni 102 ED basically is 900mm f8.8 which mean less magnification to reach my desired 1500-200mm (without crop sensor magnification).
Anybody can comments on the two Celestron?
Thanks.
