Hi everyone,
So I've not bought a telescope for a very very long time. I have the etc 90 go to series which isn't very good on focusing. I also have the 10" dobsonian which is at mum's and too big to put on car and needs collimating which I have no idea how to do or where to go with it.
So I have been looking at telescope, the Celestron nexstar 8se series but no way I can afford this.
So a telescope that is around £1000, less if possible and at least 8" - 10". I don't like weight wants as I can't get to grips with them.
Any help appreciated, thank you 😬
