CANGAROO group has constructed the new large imaging Air \v Cerenkov telescope to exploit hundred GeV region gamma-ray astronomy in March 1999 at Woomera, South Australia. It has a 7m parabolic mirror consisting of 60 small plastic spherical mirrors, and a fine imaging camera with 512 PMTs covering the field of view of 3 degree. Observation will start from July 1999.
