I have 2 Meade etx 90 go to scopes and a a couple of c 90 Celestron scopes and I love them ! Easy to use and quick to set up for a pleasant evening for viewing and a time to relax from the day ! I Watch your videos and enjoy the content , thanks for your effort and passion you display for your love of astronomy and the different scopes used through out the years ! Thanks !
Thanks! I have never had a chance to handle the early ETX non-ElectronicControl fork mount, and your explanation of the knobs and their function is very helpful.
I have two of those scopes: The Questar and the Celestron C-90 Astro. Both are very high quality scopes and would recommend either for a small planetary instrument. They are not suitable for deep sky objects however.
Just finished watching the video and found it very informative. I was interested in the segment where you added an adapter to the photo port on the ETX 90. I have been looking for one just like the one in the video and cannot find one. I have a 45 degree prism and I do not need to but the Meade 932 prism, I just need an adapter as shown in your video. If anyone knows the adapter he used and where to find one I would appreciate a reply on this site. Thanks!

Wow, that C90 is so cute.
Thanks for sharing.
New Mead ETX is made so, the OTA can be removed very easy!
Even other OTA can be mounted between the fork!

Very interesting comparison. My new C90 is certainly better than my old spotting scope C90, although I'd still like to find an Astro Model like yours!
I certainly did enjoy your clip ! Thanks !
Hello Dave, Do you compare any 80mm refractor telescope ?
Hi Hu Rita,
No, sorry. Most of the "classic scopes" I review are in other apertures, like 75mm.
Lol the head you are using costs 4x the amount of those cheap little scopes
