Mini Borg 50EDII

Introducing the latest member of the Mini Borg line — the 50EDII (available after June 30, 2009). This scope features a 50mm ED f/10 objective and excellent baffling to suppress reflections, making it ideal for solar or lunar imaging. As we have come to expect from the modular Borg scopes, the mechanical specifications for this scope are compatible with the other accessories for the Mini Borg line.
