The Nexstar 6SE I bought last weekend came without a finderscope. Looking online (and wanting to buy secondhand again if I can), Ive found this one (http://www.365astronomy.com/skywatcher-6x30-skywatcher-finderscope-complete-with-bracket-p-2447.html?zenid=3477c83c156971361c865899660ebd0f) at reasonable price, but I'm fairly sure I also need a dovetail thats fixed to the telescope first.
Any tips, places to buy or just general advice on this gratefuly received. (The guy I bought it from sid this dovetail and finderscope was only going to cost £18!)
my advice, I have a 6x30 that came with my scope. Buy the 50mm one...
Angled viewfinder is a bonus - less contortions to see through it ;)
I love my Telrad finder, you would need to get a dew shield with mirror to give you the same ease of use as a right angle finderscope.
