Review on Celestron 50mm Travel Scope: Portable Refractor Telescope with Fully-Coated Glass Optics - Ideal for Beginners - BONUS Astronomy Software Included! by Ha Joon (Hj) ᠌

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Poor product, the quality is below average.

I bought for 2.500 shares 3 years ago, I was immediately disappointed. I wanted to join space with this apparatus - in vain, it was money down the drain. All because of simply the most terrible mount - with its help (or rather counteraction) it is incredibly difficult to aim and fix the telescope even on the Moon, not to mention other objects. Everything vibrates even from the slightest breeze. You can’t even buy this for a child - it will be very disappointing. Now occasionally I collect as a spyglass, and then on a manfrotto tripod. For a native tripod - well, I don’t know, you can tie up cucumbers or something. If you have a desire to astronomy - do not be stingy. I bought a sky watcher 1149 (for example) and I don’t know the troubles .

Pros
  • nothing
Cons
  • mount optical quality
