      3.0 Not really good for ZenithStar 66

      Pros:

      Strong Construction,Lightweight,Compact

      Cons:

      Difficult to Use

      Comments:

      The description made it sound like it would fit my scope I have. Not a good fit on the ZenithStar 66, I did make it work with it, but I couldn't use the base so it sets a little lower than I'd like.
      It is a good quality finder bracket for larger scopes.

      Bottom Line: Would you recommend this item? Yes

      5.0 Strong, light and beautifull

      Pros:

      Strong Construction

      Cons:

      Comments:

      These finder rings are great, I can shift it from my 13.1 inch dobsonian to my WO 80mm Megrez very quick, also in summer time I like to use a green lasser instead of the optic finder, wich I prefer to use on cold days when the green laser doesn't work, so my 8X50 finder fits sugly on the rings, but still enough room to align, and for the green laser (which I placed inside a wider tube to make fit the rings) there is room to spare on the collimation screws.
      I know its silly, but I like to place the Swan logo pointing back so I can always look at it, I like the quality of it very much.
