      4.0 ZWO 60mm guide scope

      Comments:

      This scope has been working well with both of my imaging refractors. Attaching it via the finder shoe on my 115mm refractor, I good excellent guiding (0.8 a-s rms) and no detectable differential flexure.
      Similar performance was achieved on the 80mm refractor also.
