      @@astronomyscope hey there, I have lost a screw to hold the eyepiece in place. I was just wondering if you knew which kind of screw I would need to buy to replace? Thanks in advance.

    I have had 2 of those for over 20 years. Great travel scope or bird watching, taking to a shooting range or just casual views of the night sky. Many uses for those scopes. Also have a solar filter for one of them. Have travel bag and take one of those on vacation trips.

    Mine keeps pointing up when I fully extend the telescope, I think it might be a loose screw which isn't tight enough.

    Fun fact: the screw at the lowest of the tripod is used to pull out the inner tube too. When you pull out the tube and retighten the screw, you can get a little more elevation like 6-10 inches or so. Just be careful as it can get a little shaky.

    Hello, Im trying to use it however I do always see the stars and planets like umbrellas or arcs, I can't focus well enough to see them. I have used it for bird watching, but during the night, even the moon is blurry.. is there a way to collimate this telescope, I haven't found tutorials, nor has Celestron replied to my messages

      I found the PERFECT inexpensive tripod upgrade too! Just got mine today and it only cost 35 bucks! The Joilcan AH75. It works perfectly, is sturdy, and it can be easily panned/moved unlike the garbage tripod that came with the telescope. I couldn`t even view the MOON with the stock tripod! ERRRRR!!! I also have the Skymaster 15X70 binoculars. I think this tripod is about to make those a lot more useful. I may try to use the wobbly tripod that came with the telescope to rig up something to a pole firmly implanted in the ground in my yard so I can sit in a chair and see almost directly overhead comfortably with the binoculars. But I suppose I can just lie on a foam camper mattress with a couple of thick pillows. They`re so heavy but amazing once you get to the prism screws to adjust them and not see double images. You can see so much more in the night sky compared to 10x50 binos. The Milky Way is incredible. I wish I could afford their premium brighter ones. I was able to see the bands of Jupiter with the Celestron with a 2x Svbony Barlow, 90 degree diagonal, and their 10mm Plossl. So I like the scope.

      Agree I dumped the 3x Barlow and the finder scope. And got a better eyepiece, a 2x Barlow and a laser dot finder.. also found a better tripod for heavy cameras. More stable

  • @sandersmc

    Did this come with a 3x Barlow lens as well? for the extra magnification, as looking to pick this one up for myself. Love the videos keep them coming 😊

    • @astronomyscope
      @astronomyscope  Рік тому +1

      Thank you for the kind words and pleased to hear you are enjoying my videos. This doesn't come with 3x Barlow Lenses by default, no. You would need to get them separately.

    • @baneverything5580
      @baneverything5580 Рік тому

      I recommend getting a 1.5 or 2 times Barlow. This scope is too small for the 3x and some have said it won`t focus. But I don`t know for sure. You may be better off getting better eye pieces but they say the 20mm is good. I ordered a Plossel 10mm to see if it`s any improvement but haven`t received it or the scope yet. You may want to get a 90 degree mirror too.
