  • Star FullStar FullStar FullStar EmptyStar Empty Posted: September 26 2010 review from Amazon User
    Pros & Cons :
    the german equatorial mount supplied might as well be a solid block of steel, that would be about as easy to adjust and much more stable, unacceptable.

    Nice Scope Crippled by an Unstable mount & Flimsy Tripod

    ...Well, I spent allot of time researching a good beginner scope for myself and my family and after much deliberation I chose the Celestron Astromaster 130EQ. I think I need to look a bit more. Pros: ... read more

  • Star FullStar FullStar FullStar EmptyStar Empty Posted: August 26 2010 review from Amazon User
    Pros & Cons :
    it needs a much more finely tuned focuser as well, it is impossible to focus on more distant objects and see any detail at all.

    Mediocre at best.

    ...I purchaced high quality lenses, which help, however they are too much for the scope and were more for a higher quality telescope. With a ton of patience, and keeping your expectations in check, t ... read more

    Pros & Cons :
    if you keep your hands off the scope while observing, it's more than stable enough for some good viewing.

    "Big Bang" for your astronomy buck

    Pros & Cons :
    a recommendation for celestron, they must improve the protection of the packing of the mount cg3, it(he) is not alone to put it in a box without any protection, this one should come protected by rubber(gum), to avoid what happened to me, that in the sending(parcel) and due to the weight of the mount, the mount i strike and there was doubled the screw of slow movement in dec.

    ...Already I have had opportunity to do a few tests of this telescope and can comment to them that the image is excellent.The construction and the design is robust enough.Only I found two negative de ... read more

    Pros & Cons :
    we found it difficult to use and tough to keep on objects once we were able to finally find them.

    Don't expect too much
