Elmarto Posted February 24, 2013 Share Posted February 24, 2013 Hi,I am new to this, I think I have already posted in the wrong place! I am thinking of a new telescope as the one I have is for my daughter who is 3 and is second hand! Not sure whether to go for a telescope or a good pair of binoculars? If I do go for a scope I think it will be a goto type as I feel it may help!Any advice greatly welcomed! Martin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
