From what I could tell a good scope for a beginner, and a good bang for your bucks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sunshine Posted April 1, 2018 Share Posted April 1, 2018 Absolute amazing choice for a beginner, Dob's of that size are the quintessential beginners scope and should carry you for years! and regarding aperture for dollar value you can't beat a Dob, you hit the nail on the head with that choice. Congrats! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ronl Posted April 1, 2018 Share Posted April 1, 2018 Hello and welcome to the community, a very good choice of scope, when you get good weather your first target should be the Moon, that was mine it will blow your socks off. Enjoy. Clear Sky's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
