🔭 Celestron AstroMaster 130EQ Reflector Telescope - Ideal for Beginners - Enhanced Glass Optics - Adjustable Tripod Stand - Includes Astronomy Software Bundle Review

About a year and a half ago, I climbed through private ads and came across a telescope for sale. As it turned out, he was small, in fact, a child, on a flimsy tripod, with a lens diameter of only 50 mm. Some evil force made me buy it. I have long felt a craving for optics and the starry sky, but, as usual, drafts often walked in my pockets and there was simply no choice at that time. I lived with this telescope for about a year, occasionally using it for its intended purpose, and then finally…

Hello astronomers. I want to tell you about the wonderful Celestron AstroMaster 130 EQ telescope that I bought back in the summer and this is my first telescope in my life. I always dreamed of looking at the moon closer, but with my eyesight it was simply not realistic. I ordered it in a liaison that is located in the Dynamo metro area. The day of delivery was just fine weather and the moon was 20 percent of its size. Assembling the telescope was not difficult, it took about 30 minutes. The…

Luminous Newt reflector with a spherical mirror. I highly do not recommend buying, because at magnifications from 0.5D (from 60x) there will be a terrible spherical aberration that makes the image "soapy". The image of such a reflector will be comparable to the image (sorry for the taphtalogy) of a 70mm refractor lens telescope. The telescope is also on the black list of optical instruments, for the above reasons. Of the analogues, I would advise Sky-watcher BK (P) 130650EQ2, it will give the…

The telescope is already seven years old. Despite the fact that the old mount is still intact. I bought a 4 mm eyepiece, a 2x barlow lens and changed the finder with a dot to a collimator. Now it hits exactly where it pointed, even with a 4 mm eyepiece. M 31 (The Andromeda Galaxy is gorgeous and makes it clear how grandiose the universe is and how fragile our world is) I have not learned how to set it by coordinates, I use sky maps, probably like most who do not have automatic aiming at…

I bought it for spiritual viewing, realized my old dream. Personally, I really liked it, do not tear it off)) I ordered from Hong Kong, I received it quickly in just 3 days. The set is standard. The assembly is reliable, there is no backlash in the connections with the pipe, it is assembled as easy as shelling pears, I did it myself in a few seconds. It's easy to set up too. Quality glass optics. The picture is excellent and does not tremble. The craters on the Moon through a telescope are…

Opportunities are very good! Suitable not only for beginners, I think for amateurs too. Quality optics, 100% glass. It is a pleasure to watch, although at first I was not particularly interested in space. What you see is simply breathtaking! The telescope is very powerful. The moon is viewed close and quite clearly, it seems that you are about to touch it with your hand. The craters are awesome. Then they looked at Saturn, it was interesting to look at its ring. In addition, they looked at the…

Do not forget that 650mm focal length of a spherical MG at 130mm aperture is very small for a good 1: 5 picture, this osprey has it, its main aperture spherical mirror has a focus of 65cm, disgustingly small, ideally from 90cm and above, at high magnifications, it gives a decent spherical aberration . therefore, high magnifications are not for this osprey, secondly, its thick plastic extensions of the spider of the secondary mirror are also not ice-they spoil the picture a little, and indeed…

Got it as a warranty replacement for the PowerSeeker 127, which is just as bad, if not worse, but at least it has a usable seeker. Buying is strictly not recommended. If only second-hand from hands for a small price. In principle, at low magnifications it is quite possible to see something, craters on the Moon, stripes on Jupiter (you most likely will not see a spot), but if you want to conduct some more serious observations or engage in astrophotography, this is not about this telescope. You…

The telescope was a birthday present. I have been using it for over five years. At first, until you get to know him, everything is in order. The kit comes with two eyepieces 20mm and 10mm. With these eyepieces you can get a magnification of 32x and 80x, respectively. For three years I used complete eyepieces, in which you can generally view the moon, Jupiter, Venus. The plastic on the mount (tripod) broke a year later in the cold -20 degrees Celsius. After three years of use with complete…
