I have been considering the Astro-Tech AT60ED 60mm and the Apertura 60mm FPL-53 Doublet APO Refractor, I like the weight and the size of both for my. I have an eq mount/tripod and an Astro Tech AT60ED + reducer/flattener on way. At just under the $2000 range, (including an aluminum case) This telescope is definitely a top contender for my hard-earned cash.
