Re: Discovery vs. Starmaster



It depends on what you are going to spend, if you have a very LARGE budget
and can afford it, I'd go with the Starmaster,(You might ask what the
waiting time is too), but if your on a smaller limited budget, then you
might go the route of Discovery.

I'm considering purchasing a Discovery 12.5" TD or possibly a
Starmaster 11" ELT Dobsonian telescope. I've heard great things about
Starmaster optics and was wondering how Discovery telescopes, which are
considerably less expensive, stack up?

Thanks.
