LightInsomnia Posted February 2, 2020 Share Posted February 2, 2020 Hi all I've owned a cekestron 114eq for years but always struggled and became deflated with trying to use it Again, I've wanted to learn so this time I've bought some celestron 71009 SkyMaster 15 x 70 Binocular for £62 off Amazon and I'll be out when I can Wish me luck 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

banjaxed Posted February 2, 2020 Share Posted February 2, 2020 Hi and welcome to SGL. You should be fine with binoculars but big ones are better with something to rest them on, try a sweeping brush upside down for starters. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LightInsomnia Posted February 2, 2020 Author Share Posted February 2, 2020 Thanks guys and girls. Living up in Lancashire with our weather but even if there's a gap in the clouds I'll be out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bish Posted February 2, 2020 Share Posted February 2, 2020 Good luck. I probably use my bins more than my scope at the moment. They are great for breaks in the clouds but also will help you find your way around the sky for your scope. I"ve got 4 pairs now and they all get used. I always take a pair on holiday if there is a chance of dark skies. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
