Okay, honestly I have reverse apeture fever. That's why I am asking how good a 40mm and 60mm refractor are. I am obviously going to look at the moon with it. (P.S. Also what else can you with both of them except the moon and Sun?) Starry nights

Thanks for the answer, but I was looking at 120x magnification for Juipter and Saturn, so is it okay for that?

Yep, it looks like that, but the finderscope is a bit smaller (or maybe just a trick of light)

Just as the title, I want to ask just how stable is 80mm refractor with 400mm diameter on a EQ 1 mount and is it good (The mount) for visual observation? Any help is appreciated! (P.S I am looking for a good grab n' go scope, so please no comments like 'The telescope is useless!!') Starry nights

That's a really good photo! The stars in the core of the cluster definitely look sparkling diamonds! Starry nights

New Binoculars or UHC Filter?
spacegalaxy replied to spacegalaxy's topic in Getting Started Equipment Help and Advice
Was it first hand or second hand? I am asking because some people have a really good time with it and also thanks for all for the suggestions! Bino vote are 3, UHC are 0, I would like to see the reason for binos! (Could you please elaborate @Peter Drew?) Starry nights -
Hello! I was looking at an UHC filter as my next upgrade for my 70mm f/10 refractor, but at the same price I found that I could get a Celestron Skymaster 15x70 binos w/a tripod(Having weight capacity of 5kgs max). SO, having same aperture isn't consider an upgrade but the large FOV will let me see the wide nebula and star cluster BUT I could get UHC filter which will improve my views, but the FOV will be tiny, so what would you do in this situation? (Also, other upgrades are welcomed) Thanks for reading my query!

I am thinking of an upgrade, and the binos are so cheap that I am drawn to them, so what can I see? Celestron Skymaster 15x70 (4.4 deg fov): https://tejraj.com/celestron-skymaster-15x70-binocular.html Also, can I make a tripod for these or should I buy them?

This is the favorite observation report I have ever read! The idea that you can see many thing in that small scope, which is ultra portable is really good. I am looking forward to seeing more observation reports from that ST-80, it inspires me to bring my 70mm out and observe! and finally nicely written post! Starry nights

That tube holding the lens looks like a bottle! Also, plain aluminium is the best tube material, it looks very nice! (P.S. Can you add some more pics? I would like to see them!)

Thanks for the comment, I can't thank you enough! Also, a bit of confusion, which Celestron Barlow do you mean? The cheap one or the Omni Barlow or some other one? Other than that, there are no doubts and once again thanks you!

Show us your smallest scope!

The look of the Bresser scope..... It looks amazing! I wonder ho it performs on major planets and double, and are those setting circles on the mount? This scope with its mount just looks elegant Starry nights! -

I am pretty sure it will be a beauty on deep sky (Widefield!) 😉 Clear nights -

I just love the look of small maks! This one looks definitely cool and I love how the finder is like 1/2 the size of the mak! Would love to know it's peformance though
