Review on Celestron 21048 PowerSeeker 80EQ Telescope by Thasapon Bowers

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Only buy this if you are ready to buy a Telrad Finder Sight

This is a great little scope for beginners. You can see the rings of Saturn and the bands and moons of Jupiter. However, the viewfinder area is completely useless. Spend an additional $50 and purchase the Telrad Finder Sight. This makes finding things a million times easier and saves you a lot of frustration. The Barlow lens is also completely useless. The telescope can't really zoom in enough to get the Barlow lens in focus, so don't even bother using it.

Pros
  • . Very good price
Cons
  • Fair
