Reflector Telescope Model F70076 Astronomical Telescope- HD Precise Optics -(with Full Size Stand-for)

Way too wobbly, the view is not still as the framework is very unstable. It's sheer headache to adjust focus.

Easy to mantle and dismantle the instrument , good clarity , occupying less , very easy to point object with the scope, Due to our weather condition I viewed moon and Jupiter ,If possible I display pictures of my mounting next time .

There is a lot I wish I knew about telescopes before I bought this one. A few things you should know before you buy a telescope (I wish I had known this before I purchased): 1. Don't go by magnification. Anything over 200x is almost always useless. I use only the 20mm eyepiece (35x) and the 12.5mm eyepiece (56x) on a regular basis. I have used the 4mm (175x) eyepiece only once so far, and frankly, it isn't particularly useful for anything other than the moon. 2. Go for as large an aperture as you can afford and comfortably use. A telescope is a light gathering instrument, and aperture is king. In this context, the 76700 telescope (which this is), has just a 76mm aperture, which realistically gives about 150x resolvable magnification. For many, due to similar (or lower) pricing of similar sized scopes, a refractor telescope may be preferable as it will be easier to use (no collimation needed, easy to carry without upsetting settings) 3. Join/lurk on reddit threads regarding astronomy or telescopes before making your purchase. Now the pros and cons: 1. The telescope does what it is meant to, i.e., make things larger and brighter. In this context it is perfectly adequate. The optics are good (the mirror, and focal ratio, not the eyepieces) You can see the moon in significant detail, and the brighter planets can be made out as well. Living in a city with significant light pollution, I have not attempted to check out DSOs etc. The telescope may perhaps benefit from a few upgrades, like replacing the 0.966 Huygens eyepieces to 1.25 Kellner/Plossl or Ultrawide ones. A major pro is that this telescope is upgradable, so as your budget suits, you can keep improving it. Which brings us to, the major con... 2. The mount. If you look up similar telescopes on amateur astronomy threads and channels, it will not take much time for you to realise that these types of telescopes are classified by many as "hobby killers". To a large extent, this problem is because of the mount, which does not provide as much stability as required, and where moving the telescope can be challenging. Here's the thing: every touch that shakes the mount, is amplified by the degree of magnification, making even the tiniest of movements headache inducing. The mount renders the 4mm eyepiece virtually unusable. Of course, this does not mean that this obstacle is...ahem...unsurmountable...with a delicate touch and some practice, you should be able to use the telescope without nausea. A tip: Calibrate your scope vis a vis your eyepiece during the day (terrestrial viewing) to get a feel of the telescope before pointing it at the sky. Overall verdict: Does what it says. Decent for planetary observation. Go for it if you have the patience to work with the mount. About the pictures: All the images taken are from a handheld mobile phone camera, so aren't the best. The visuals you will see through the telescope will be considerably clearer, and more focused. The image of the moon is through a moon filter as it was very bright otherwise (even so, my phone camera could barely cope or focus), the small dot with the two smaller dots on the side is Jupiter with two of the Galilean moons. Both the moon as well as Jupiter were gorgeous through the scope. The telescope is, of course, a reflector, therefore the images are naturally, upside down mirror images, which can be corrected using the erecting eyepiece adaptor (not recommended and relevant only for terrestrial viewing) included in the kit.

The mount is very wobbly due to its weight. Also , I don't know how, but there is a huge amount of chromatic abberation. Even more than a refractory of same company

Manual is not proper, it is not working

This product is overpriced for what you get. Most of the components are made from cheap plastic and feel flimsy—it’s unlikely they’ll last long. Assembly is unnecessarily complicated, and the user manual provides little to no help. Overall, it feels like a low-quality chinese product that’s not worth the cost.

Excellent...Super Good's..me Like It Sir

The lenses were defective...not working properly.
