5.0 out of 5 stars This little scope has revived my interest in astronomy
I've had a 8" diameter dobsonian telescope for about 25 years but wanted a smaller scope I could take camping when I didn't feel like dragging the heavy, 4 foot long one with me. I also wanted one I could use as a spotting scope for birding.There are only two things I don't like about this scope. 1) tripod is way to wimpy. Even on a name brand heavier-duty tripod, it's less stable than a dobsonian. The tripod it comes with is barely adequate. It works best if placed on a sturdy table with the legs extended just far enough to make it less tippy. 2) There is some lense flare when looking at Mars, but this is to be expected for this price of scope. There is also some minor purple fringing around the edge of the moon, but the moon looks so gorgeous thru it that you forget to notice.Now for what I like:1) Portability - doesn't kill my back to haul it outside. Sets up in minutes. So easy to take outside, I use it all the time. I'd only haul my big scope out a couple times a year because it was too heavy.2) The moon looks so AWESOME thru this scope!!!3) Jupiter: you can see several of the moons. I haven't been able to make out any of the color bands as I kinda can with my bigger scope, but that's to be expected due to the size/cost of this one.3) Saturn: It's my favorite planet. Even though it looks tiny in this scope, you can see the rings and it's beautiful.I was able to see the nebula in Orion's sword from the city (I live on the outskirts of Salt Lake City) It was really beautiful on one especially dark night, but most nights it's not dark enough to see it well. I haven't been able to see other nebulas I've looked for. I expect that when I'm able to get away from the city lights I'll be able to see more nebulas and galaxies. (Nebulas and planets thru backyard telescopes don't look like most photos. You don't see the colors. Nebulas look like gray clouds. They can still be beautiful tho).The eyepieces feel cheap, very light weight, but are surprisingly good. Better than I expected for the price. They have enough eye relief that They work ok with my eyeglasses, but I prefer to take my glasses off when looking thru the scope.I haven't tried the digiscoping adapter yet, but I've experimented with a similar one on my other scope. Digiscoping is tricky and often not all you hope it'd be, but you might get some good photos of the moon.I haven't really tried it as a spotting scope yet, other than to look at some leaves at the top of a tree, and expect it'll be good for that. I'm considering buying a zoom eyepiece for that.All in all, I think this is an amazing scope for the price. Too bad the tripod isn't as good as the scope. If you can get a heavier tripod, you'll love this scope, especially if you can find some dark skies. But even from the city, the Moon, Saturn & Jupiter are so amazing thru this scope.
5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent so far!
Initially, I bought a cheaper plastic knock off which barely worked, overly complicated to set up because of its cheap production. Cut to an episode of Big bang theory where one of the characters was using a Celestron telescope for an experiment. I saw the brand before but know nothing about quality telescopes; I returned the cheap telescope and paid a $40 difference for this telescope. Just taking it out of the box, I could feel the quality is much higher than the original one I bought. The body is heavy high quality materials, the eyepieces are actually metal as opposed to plastic coated in chrome. As soon as I set it up, I was able to get a clear view, even the cellphone adapter is made of metal. I am looking forward to using this at night seeing what I can see and capture. My only complaints are the quality of the tripod and travel bag are not great but the tripod is slightly better than the one that came with the knockoff. Recommended for beginners to learn on.
4.0 out of 5 stars A cheap and easy scope for travel and beginners
I have fallen in love with this scope. The accessories are garbage though. I added a 2x Barlow, a tripod that's a bit beefier, and a red dot sight. I have been having fun looking at the moon, Saturn, and Venus. It is a cheep and easy way to check out the skys. I am excited to take this on road trips. The backpack is pretty cool.
5.0 out of 5 stars Great kid's first scope.
Got this for my 10 year old son. So he'd have a scope light enough for him to bring outside and set up on his own, and cheap enough that it's not a huge loss if it gets messed up. Also, I kinda wanted a travel scope to use for myself too. I have plenty of large scopes that take a lot of time to set up. This is perfect for setting up and taking down quickly and easily.There is lots of chromatic aberration around the edges of the moon, but its pefectly fine for a $100 scope. I've included a couple moon pics taken by my son and a quick single exposure of the Orion Nebula that he took. Both he took with a phone, using the supplied phone attachment.The scopes construction is extremely cheap plastic. But that also makes it very light and portable. The tripod is very light as well, but that makes it the worst item in the bundle. It is very shaky and positioning it on an object, especially with a phone attached, is quite a pain. But as long as you understand and are OK with this being a travel scope, it's a great purchase. I love the little thing as much, if not more, than my kid.
Peforms Whats Its Expected.
A good buy and performs as expected. Users are right, the tripod is flimsy and had to used a regular camera's. The fastening is flimsy too and after directing at the moon, the aiming point is dislodged.Otherwise, economically pricedand worth the buy.
