Thanks for you're good advice..

This thing is the best for outreach. It's portable so you can take it in anywhere in a backpack. I bought one and also have a $7000 imaging rig as well as the s50

Bonkers!! Very entertaining. Seems slightly unfair that you were shooting with an unfamiliar brand - I’d be stuffed with anything other than my 6Ds!!

After the first tip, I paused and opened the Amazon tab to check the telescope model I was looking at last, and sure enough it was an EQ model..... already good advice. 🤣

Im hearing about smart telescopes for the first time here. I only knew about the dobsonian and one ones with lenses for astro photography.

Wow😦

I’m only interested in visual so I bought a stellalyra 8 inch dob and it’s fantastic!I think Astro would be far too difficult for me so I just use my smartphone for photos!

Its, low priced, takes pretty good photos, is compact, easy to bring anywhere and simple to use as long as you level it before using. 15 minutes after opening box, was taking photos. I have a larger, much larger telescope, is pain to move around, harder to get up and running and I lost interest. I set the s50 in backyard, go in house and start finding deep space objects while on my couch. Cant wait until they release the newer seestar.

What about Dwarf 3? Looks good.

🤣🤣🤣

Nothing wrong with it, Just snobs that do not like it.

Probably a dumb question but do you need a star adventurer tracking mount for 25 seconds exposure milkyway shot?

This is so good

That's it. These dissenters made me change my mind. They should spend some more money into launching a space telescope to get photos as good or better than those from the Hubble telescope. Terrestrial telescopes are just toys with serious limitations. 😂

Also no offensive... but it really seems white people are triggered the most...

those broken sentences though in the beginning ow....

what about them mosquitos.

I went to your website to buy some prints. So you don't have anything that is always available?? I have to wait for some sort of drop??

Alternate Title : "Bray gets bit by a harvester ant, Ian complains about Canon cameras, Antoine forgets to turn the tracker on"

This is hilarious. 10/10 video. "How do you turn it on" "Who even uses Canon anyway" CLASSIC

Interesting.

So, if I understand correctly, you're the Australian break dancer in this scenario? 😉

Made us laugh while we learned! Well done! Bill & Lynne

Entertaining and informative! Love it!

The gatekeeping makes no sense. Would be like introducing someone to gaming, and they wanna pick up a preowned PS3 and saying ''no you gotta get a £3000 gaming PC with 128GB RAM and an Nvidia RTX4090Ti''. Let people enjoy the cheaper one/easier one and it'll be a gateway into more serious stuff.

what is the cheapest telescope/tracking that I can get?? I have a 70mm 600mm refractor, and I really want to put my dslr on it. But it has no tracking. So what is the absolutely cheapest I can go with a telescope and tracker I can put my dslr on?

Came across your video by accident. Glad I did. Recently started paying attention to what's above instead of what's put in front of us. Found your information insightful and helpful . Subscribed and look forward to videos and information. Thanks

Hi. What do you think about Celestron 8se? I want to do astro photo. Thanks

This piece of kit is amazing, id given up on setting up my 10" reflector, nearly droping counter weights on my feet only eventually after ages of getting it set up and freezing my Butt off. to have to pack it all away again, and go indoors indoors thoughly disgruntled because it had clouded over, ------then to have my partner say " did you have any good viewings!!" 😡 WELL NO MORE!

Hi, Love your videos and I can't wait to go out and start taking pics again. I have a fuji gfx 100s and was wondering if this adapter is what I need. Wide (48mm) Low Profile T-Ring for Fuji GFX. Sorry for the newbie question. Thanks!

How did you hook up the gfx cameras to the telescope? I have a gfx100s and I am starting to do astro and was wondering how that works. Also, is the 45mm your choice for astro in the GFX line? Thanks again!

Hello Watched your telescope buying guide Man thanks a lot it was very helpful But lemme just ask Whats the poimt of smart "telescope" if you gonna watch the image on ur phone or laptop Like worthless I want that classic feeling of watching them with my own eyes Gonna go for skywatcher dobsonian telescope ig for visuals (gotta save some first 😅) I will surely buy a diff one in future for astrophotography Thanks man Also if you have time i would like to talk to you bout astronomy It will be very appreciated thanks 🙏🙏

Man thanks a lot it was very helpful But lemme just ask Whats the poimt of smart "telescope" if you gonna watch the image on ur phone or laptop I want that classic feeling of watching them with my own eyes Gonna go for dob telescope ig fir visuals I will surely buy a diff one in future for astrophotography Thanks man Alao if you have time i would like to talk to you bout astronomy It will be very appreciated thanks

Great video, thanks!

Телескоп SkyWatcher 102/500 StarTravel AZ3 What about this one ? Its like old school type yes but if i want to photograph a planets or get better visual of the planets its cant be for a price of 400$ telescope right?

I have been interested in buying a telescope for a long time. However, I found it difficult to find out more about it. This video gave me some very good tips and advice to help me make a decision. Very helpful video and very nice explanations. Subscription is out.

People miss the point. This is $450 of joy and fun. And yes, to newbies, they'll get more enjoyment for their $500 out of this, than a monster 8" Dob that barely fits in their Honda. Is it going to eclipse a $4500 astrophotography setup? Of course not. If you get 90% cloudy nights in Ohio? $450 is about the right price. This is a taste of the future for the old timer blowhards who don't like that their $8000 of equipment isn't going to be as relevant some day.

Great video with excellent points. As someone who has been doing Astrophotography for almost a year now, and someone who purchased a Seestar S50 as my first (and current) telescope, I can say these gate keeping comments are just dumb, illogical, and don't really make sense to me. Why push people away from the community? That being said, I love my Seestar and the fact that a beginner like myself can get a pretty good quality, all in one telescope that is extremely beginner friendly is pretty awesome. I have learned a ton through my own trial and error as well as through online forums and KZfaq videos. I am even now confident in getting a newer telescope with a bigger aperture. Spending hundreds of dollars on a telescope, camera, and tracking mount out of the blue as a beginner can be scary if you don't know what to do, and I am very confident in saying the Seestar is a great first step for anyone wanting to get into the hobby and start learning at your own pace.

What kind of paper do you usually order, when placing printing orders for pieces? I visited their site and there are a few different paper options, personally, I cannot tell the difference between the different kinds of paper

Just came across your video as we are trying to see the peak of the Perseid Meteor Showers tonight (8/11 into 8/12). We are planning to go to the Maghini Winery for that. Looks like theres going to be some thunder storms this afternoon but might be cloudy with light showers ... Perhaps we willbmiss the opportunity this year again.

When I was a kid, I participated in astronomy classes. During the summer we've been spending nights on the roof of the school with our teacher, taking photos of the Moon, Jupiter and the sky. We've been using telescopes from the 60s and cameras from the 60s with black and white films. No electronics at all. No automatic mounts, sky trackers, etc. My question is then - why is it fine to use a lot of equipment (digital cameras, coolers for the camera, automatic tripods that follow the sky, use digital post-processing techniques, etc.) but it is not fine to use the state of the art automatic telescope like this one? This sounds like double standards. You either give people freedom to choose what they sincerely want or go make yourself a telescope (like Newton) and use it. Btw, when I was a kid, I made my own telescope. It was shit but a lot of fun. It gave about x10 magnification. :D

What do you think of the Astromaster 102 mm refractor

This video is pure gold, thank you so much for sharing!

Slipknot? I ran into people that claimed Helloween are not metal

I’ve had immense fun using this scope. If you’re that paranoid, buy a cheap second hand android tablet or phone and enjoy the night sky. Even my wife is impressed.

Not like, don’t buy it!

I hate that I live in sweden doing this hobby... Sending my gear to USA will ruin me... 😢

This has to be one of the top funniest videos. Lol I don’t want to meet anyone like that.

Thanks

Hey! I've been using an Orion XT10 for about the past 3 years. I want to get into astrophotography, but this scope just isn't it. I also want something portable, and im not very worried about aperture anymore. Would it be a smart move to sell my scope and buy an entry level Go-To EQ? I've been watching one on Explore Scientific for about 500 USD that really interests me. Whole kit, comes with an 80mm refractor and an adapter for a DSLR I already own.
