I’ve owned both Askar and William Optics gear, and while Askar makes solid, dependable scopes, the RedCat 91 is something special - and you can't go wrong with William Optics. Explorer of the cosmos, one photon at a time. I capture the universe with a collection of about 12 telescopes, including the SCA310, Astro-Physics 155 EDF Starfire, TEC 180FL, and Takahashi Epsilon 160ED, and my beloved FSQ-106EDX4. Paired with advanced imaging systems - including the medium-format ZWO ASI461MM and ASI6200MM Pro with Chroma filters - these precision instruments help me reveal the faint structures, rich colors, and extraordinary detail hidden in the night sky. |

The only WO scope I've owned is the RedCat51, but it was an excellent piece of gear and never disappointed. Not to mention the price! Amatuer Astrophotographer since 2020.
