I just found one of these being thrown away. It's a 130 but a bit longer. The viewed had a lens missing it looked like the sun had melted it and it had dropped out. A year earlier a friend of mine was throwing away an old rusty telescope and he gave me the eyepiece. I cleaned the mirrors, they are far from perfect but the new eyepiece made it work. Pretty impressive!

I have the powerd model and there is nothing mentioned how to use it can you point me in the right direction ? It maybe a silly question but I tried to line up the Star pointer in the day which itself is not easy to do ...the daylight image (a chimney pot in the distance) is upside down ( I know this probaly makes lillte differnce to a novice viewing a star, but I guess it would when viewing the moon !!! Appreciate any advice as I'm ithcing to get to use it! ( Im a retired key worker retired-firefighter) so thanks for your service !!!) Rod

@reviewsbydave8417 3 жыл бұрын

Hi Rod, glad you watched it, it's usual for the image to be upside down, some lenses are desinged to correct that so the 20mm one is designed this way. perhaps you were using a stronger lense at the time. You can order an erecting eye peice from Amazon which when combined with a lense flips the image back by 180 deg. better for terrestrial viewing. For the motor I'm unsure as not used one as yet, try this chaps video kzfaq.info/get/bejne/r8ePeZme0qqblnk.html Respect to you and all fireman - such a noble occupation, stay safe,

@reviewsbydave8417 4 жыл бұрын

They are both very good telescope - The FOCAL LENGTH is effectively the length of the telescope. It is measured as the distance from the main optic to the point where the image is formed. A short focal length will give a wide field of view but the objects in the field of view will appear small. A long focal length will give a narrow field of view (small area of sky) but the objects in view will appear larger. Short focal lengths are best for looking at star fields and larger objects. Long focal lengths are most suitable for small objects and studying fine detail, for example on the Moon and the planets. So the 130EQ is adapted to view planets and deep space large objects , distant galaxies the 114 eq is more for Moon and planets. Hope this helps.

A little known fact you might be interested in if you are not aware of it. At 13:36 you show a shot of your lens cover. On the cover there are two knob looking sort of things. This is for looking at the Moon and possibly Venus. It reduces the aperture down greatly so the Moon is not so bright in your eye. You remove the cover from the top knob and you can stick it on the bottom knob so you don't lose it.

Do you have any tips to be able to line up or how / where to stand when viewing through the red dot?

A good question, it does take a while to be positioned correctly behind it and you have to kind of approach it from a distance then move inwards, I'll have a play and maybe add some help on the next telescope video. For now, try standing further back and try to keep dot in view as you bring your eye to the finderscope.

Hi Bhuvanwsha I am awaiting good weather, but hope to get some more footage soon, Yes you can view Saturn although atmospheric conditions will need to be good to see the rings, It's just a case of being patient and finding a place with very little light polution. Barlow lenses will help see the rings but you will ned to keep it very steady, there is a motor drive you can add to it that keeps it alighned with the Earths rotation, That saves having to keep making small adjustments with the slow motion controller.

I would get a "moon filter" - you'll see the moon much more clearly with one.

@ericaroundtheworld 2 жыл бұрын

I am trying to get it for a friend .I don't think he can keep the telescope outside . As he might be just putting it in his vacation house (his home town ). May I know with this will he be able to see more than just the moon? Like other planets . The ring of some planets groups of stars nebula etc. If yes what eye piece should I be getting any suggestion ? Thanks a lot

I turned it around for the slow motion handle to direct away from nose, but now the tube is slanting downwards! And now am confused

Just below the back of your telescope should be a bolt you can turn on a long screw, turn that clockwise (lift the front up gently to help) you should be able to raise the front back up to the sky. (Its the equatorial mount screw at the back).

Review Monkey I ended up buying it. It is actually a very decent telescope.

Always on exterior, never trough windows, to avoid chromatic aberration or blurred images . Or maybe using Plossl lenses . And let the temperature level in your tube with outside .

I am from Bihar (India). I'm very interest in astronomy. Should I buy this telescope? Will I be able to see Jupiter and Saturn from it? i have a Nikon camera so I can see the moon very well. Now I want to see Jupiter, And also the planet Saturn.

@reviewsbydave8417 3 жыл бұрын

Yes your should, and yes Jupiter and Saturn will be visible more so if you use stronger lenses of high quality.

Good review. However you didn't mention that you will need to change the collimation of the reflector if it gets knocked around.

Well, funny you should say that, I dropped mine on the floor recently, I suspect mine will need adjustment, if so I can do another video :)

@@reviewsbydave8417 my understanding is that it's the eye piece. The quality isn't quite there. I saw a video where a guy did a comparison between the eye pieces included with a similar telescope and one that he paid ~$150 for and the difference was astonishing.
