Conclusion, astronomy is an expensive hobby. But that doesn't mean you should wait 4 years to save your salary to buy something decent. In the meantime, get a 70mm or 80mm refractor on an AZ mount and use whatever tripod it has. Buy it from a brand with a name or expect low quality lenses and eyepieces. At this price viewfinders are crappy so get one with a red spot one and the one that has the better eyepieces. I'd recommend Celestron AstroMaster and Meade Infinity ones. The Best Astronomy Initiation Telescope - Super Powerful, Lightweight and Portable... PLUS... You get our Phone Adapter Pro for FREE as a gift Point your telescope at the object you want to observe. Look through the finderscope attached to you telescope and adjust the telescope until the object is centered in the scope. Now, look through the telescope’s eyepiece. If you centered the object in the scope, it should also be centered in the eyepiece. 5. How to set up a telescope with an equatorial mount? As with so many other things in life, education can help you avoid making frustrating mistakes. If you’re a beginner, a few minutes reading this article before you buy a telescope can save you a lot of disappointment later. Making an informed choice can get you a scope that will provide you with many years of enjoyment. You can create a “sky tour” of all the best celestial bodies, based on your exact time and location

There are a variety of lenses included and most importantly it comes with it's own collapsible tripod that fits into a 50cm carry bag. The tripod obviously gives stability during use but it's also lightweight for portability.Telescope Recommended by Experts for Beginners - Powerful, Robust and Portable... Plus... YOU Get Our Phone Adapter Pro and 6 mm Eyepiece as a Gift A Galilean telescope is a type of refracting telescope consisting of an objective convex lens and a concave lens that acts as the eyepiece. In the early days of telescopes, eyepieces were single pieces of glass that essentially acted as magnifying lenses that let you examine the image created at the focal plane by the objective lens or primary mirror. Modern eyepieces do the same job, but they use many more lens elements to correct for color fringing and other optical aberrations. The motorised function, once you get used to it, is a fantastic addition and once which makes the whole journey even more rewarding It’s smartphone adaptor also mean you can use it to shoot stills and videos of the breath-taking views you catch with this scope.

You’ll want more than one eyepiece, because eyepieces are how you control the magnification of your telescope. You calculate magnification by dividing the eyepiece focal length into the telescope’s focal length. For instance, a 900-mm telescope with a 25-mm eyepiece gives you 36× — (900/25 = 36). Don't be discouraged and get an AZ mounted quality 70mm refractor, cheap and will allow you to know the sky and see quite somethings while you save for something better. No knowledge necessary!” the ads will say. Aside from the fact that most of us get into astronomy to learn stuff, that’s seldom true anyway. With a low-end Go To scope (which is what the computerized ones are called), you’re likely to learn quite a bit of computer debugging and maybe even mechanical repair skills before you even get your first look through one. Seriously, I have seen people spend their entire night fiddling with the electronics, trying in vain to get the computer to work properly, and never once getting to look at anything in the sky. We told them to do the star test (compare the image just inside focus and just outside focus to see if they're the same), and also the "snap test": do the stars snap into tiny, bright sharpness at one exact focus point as you turn the knob, or do they shmoosh through focus a little more slowly and messily? And, to just look for the cleanest, sharpest stars.

learn the night shy. Sit down on a good night with a modest sky atlas or constellation finder and a pair of binoculars. Designed with children in mind, the SkyWays 40070 is lightweight, compact, portable (it comes with its own travel case) and simple to assemble. And when it has been put together, you can mount it on the adjustable tripod (included), which allows you to stand the scope at anywhere from 49-132cm tall, putting it at the ideal height for kids of any age to look into.

You really should take some time to get to know what it is you will be gazing into, before you gaze into it using some fairly pricy equipment. Your telescope has a focal length of 500mm without the Barlow lens, and 1500mm with the Barlow lens. Since magnification is simply the focal length of the telescope divided by the focal length of the eyepiece, we can see that using the 6mm eyepiece without the Barlow lens will give you a magnification of 83x, and using the 10mm lens with the Barlow will give you a magnification of 150x. I’ll make an absolute statement here: An equatorial mount is a poor mount for a beginner. Later on, when your hobby has flourished, say you concentrate on planetary observing or have taken up astrophotography, you might happily consider paying tens of thousands of dollars for the best equatorial mount on the planet. But to start out with, equatorial mounts are simply awful. They’re difficult to set up, difficult to use, and the cheap ones are shakier than a leaf in a breeze.

It costs nothing to enjoy the sights of the night sky. But if you want to peer into the depths of space and enjoy those sights in a little more detail, you’re going to need a telescope, which can be big investment. Aperture is represented by the diameter of the objective lens or primary mirror but is actually measured by the total surface area. Keep this in mind when comparing aperture sizes because it means that a 100mm lens can see 50% more detail than a 70mm lens. For the most part, telescopes with an aperture of less than 70mm are viewed as more of a toy than a scientific instrument. However, they aren’t always a bad choice when searching for budget telescopes or a way to view terrestrial objects. Optical Quality... The Slokey 50080 can reach a maximum magnification of 250x. The lenses are treated with an FMC ("Fully Multi Coated") coating and composed with a green layer that helps increase the brightness of celestial objects. That said, you make it sound like anything below 200 USD is just garbage, which is argueable, but for the most part that's enough for a starter, then you recommend binoculars, In my city's case i completely disagree. Binoculars are next to usdeless here because of light pollution, you really do not see more than with the naked eye, here even a 50mm telescope as toyish as it is, will give you better views; and quality binoculars come to prices close to a good 70mm refractor so i wouldn't recommend them in my specific context.
