Learn to work with it and it won't disappoint you

  • High light output
  • Perfect loafer
  • Equatorial mount
  • Tripod could be a little heavier/sturdier to prevent vibrations
After trying some smaller telescopes I switched to this one. The device takes a little time to get to know, but once you can get along with it, this is the perfect entry-level device. Due to the large diameter of the lens you get a very clear and large image and thanks to the equatorial mount you are very easily able to follow celestial bodies. The only downside is the tripod. It could have been a little sturdier/heavier. However, vibrations in the image are already a lot less due to the heavier device than with small telescopes. Definitely recommended as a first telescope!

Great beginner model, only the standard is a bit unstable.

  • Large lens diameter so a lot of light collection
  • Professional design
  • Easy to build
  • Unstable tripod
This telescope is a great beginner's model. Meets expectations and gives a razor-sharp image. The stand is a bit unstable, so you'll have to focus carefully and don't bump too much. With that in mind, the device works perfectly in my opinion! Recommended.
