80 bucks is about £60 English quids I guess. Looks a great price for a lens that big but I`m no photography expert so will see what canner makes of it.

I'm not an expert either, just a little better with the camera then most people.
The price is awesome for such a big lens, but in the video he does use a not so cheap high end camera, which makes a lot of difference in the endresult when it comes to how the lens performs. I think if the video was done with my Canon500D, the images would only look half as good. But still very nice lens for looking at the moon and stars, and doing some cheap astrophotography.
Looked on amazon and saw there are more of these big lenses, never knew they where so cheap. Interesting alternative for a telescope, will keep this in mind for later.
