Description

The Epsilon 160 in our opinion is the best in class small fast astrograph that nothing else on the market can touch as it has everything from build, aperture, speed & tiny stars, add a quality Player One mono CMOS camera, 3nm Antlia filters, and you have a winning combination that can produce award-winning data!
