## Questions & Answers

**Q: can i see with my left eye**
A: If you are left eye dominant you won’t be in a comfortable position to see using your left eye. The scope is too close to the main body of the telescope which prevents your left eye from getting a view straight down the spotter scope. 
Those who are being sarcastic most likely are not left eye dominant.

**Q: I'm a real beginner/plan to purchase this for my son so we can both explore the night sky, etc. Is it really easy to setup?/How long will it take?**
A: The scope is really good for beginners and it is easy to set up. As others have said the the included tripod is small for portability and not very stable. If used fully "retracted" on the hood of a car for example, it's OK. I've used it with a Celestron 7.5MM eyepiece and a 2x barlow lens and it can still resolve the rings of Saturn on a clear night. It's not designed for that kind of magnification but for an inexpensive scope with simple lenses I was impressed. I wouldn't recommend trying that though until you have some practice on focus, finding objects in the sky, and purchasing a heavy duty camera tripod. You must remember even with the highest power eyepieces, which you only want to consider using for viewing planets, objects are really small which is due to it's 400mm focal length. Overall it's WAY better than spending 40-50 dollars on a cheap toy at the local discount store. Another good option comparable to this is the Orion 76mm Fun Scope. It's really only for table top use but it's easy to swivel up/down left/right. It is a reflector though and images don't appear as crisp in my opinion. You'll find out that half the quality of a telescope is how good the tripod or mounting set up is. For the price you can't go wrong with this scope. I own several telescopes from computer driven to large reflectors and still grab this for quick views of Orions belt, Jupiter, Saturn, the Moon, and star clusters like the double cluster and the Pleiades. Just to add to an already long answer, I added an inexpensive laser object finder (similar to the Celestron Star Finder) instead of the mostly useless viewfinder. It makes it ten times easier to point the scope at objects you're trying to look at and it doesn't take much modifications to get it screwed to the scope tube or stuck on with foam tape. Your son will thank you!

**Q: can this scope be used as a spotting scope for bird watching**
A: Excellent for bird-watching.  At 20x, it's fine.  At 40x (long distance) you may want a strudier tripod, and because it's daylight, you can look through the smaller 42mm hole (take off the little cap) in the dust cap and that will improve the sharpness at high power. If you want a better spotting scope, simply buy a fancy wide-angle/high-performance 1.25 eyepiece (super-plossl, etc), around 15 mm focal length.

**Q: How well can you see the Moon?**
A: You can see the moon great, just get the scope in focus, its amazing!!!

    Great Portable Telescope.  Perfect for trips or gift to someone whose interested in astronomy
  

*by W***O on Reviewed in the United States on July 25, 2022*

TL;DR Review: Great portable scope.  Get a separate tripod - tripod wobbles.Definitely recommended for anyone who would like to take a scope with them on a trip, for someone who doesn't have the space for a permanently mounted scope, for a student whose interested in astronomy, or as a fun add-on to keep in the trunk on trips to anywhere.  It’s small, lightweight, and priced right.  It’s light enough that a five-year old could carry it for an entire trip without effort, giving them direct participation in the setup process.This is an amazing little telescope which you can easily take anywhere you're going.  Looking at the moon, you'll be able to see the moon in fantastic detail, clearly seeing the ridges of the craters peaking above the moon's northern pole.  Aimed at any patch of the sky, stars will become visible when before you saw nothing but darkness.As with all telescopes with this magnification, you will not see the individual rings of Saturn, but you will be able to make out the halo of the rings.  Jupiter's moons, though, will be easy to spot, but speaking of spots, you won't see Jupiter's red-spot.  Mars and Venus are indistinctive.As for galaxies, if you know where to look, Andromeda can be seen.  As for using this scope for daytime viewing of birds and bees, it's perfect.My recommendation is to pair this scope with a Gosky Cell Phone Adapter Mount (you can order one here on Amazon - see my review for photos and videos take with it) and use your phone's camera to capture some amazing shots.  Note positioning the Gosky is tricky, so prepared to be frustrated as you try to get the phone's camera and the telescope aligned.  It’s not a defect and it's not something you're doing wrong - it's just worth it, but difficult.  And if you want to get photos of objects you can't even see through the telescope with your phone, Google "android [or iphone] astronomy photo stacking", "NightCap Pro," or "iastrophotography".What makes this scope a winner it how easy it is to carry around.  The included backpack has enough extra space that you can easily toss a laptop or Chromebook in it - I have.It also comes with two high-quality eyepieces (20mm and 10mm) which allow you toquickly switch them up as needed.Each lens also comes with a cap (a needed feature), though I wouldn't fret too much if I lost one. The side finderscope is well aligned and will make targeting much simpler.But the tripod!  The tripod!  It's OK, but because it's tiny and lightweight, it's not stiff and suffers from touch-wobble.  You'll repeatedly find yourself aiming for an object and then when you let go of the telescope or tripod, sometimes it will move out of alignment.  You just need to be cognizant of this and use a light touch once you've locked it down to where you want to aim.Since I’ve gotten it, my son and I have used it in City locations and in the country – obviously it works great in both locations.So if the tripod is poor - why did you give it 5 stars instead of 4?  For the size, price, and weight of the tripod, it’s what you would expect.  A sturdier tripod will weigh a whole lot more and will be bigger, killing the portability aspects of what without the tripod would automatically make this a 5-star telescope.  So it’s neither the tripod’s fault nor the Celestron’s.  A better-built tripod would weigh more and cost a lot more.As a person who doesn’t read manuals, do read the instruction manual.  Some parts aren’t obvious. I managed to figure out how to put it together but would have had a much easier time if I had taken two minutes to flip through the instruction manual.

    It does exactly what it was designed to do
  

*by J***E on Reviewed in the United States on December 13, 2018*

I don't know why people are expecting the results of the Hubble Telescope in the reviews. It does exactly what it's designed to do. It takes the moon and makes it look like a large marble that's placed a few inches from your eye that's in pretty good focus. You can see some craters on the Moon, but you can't see Niel Armstrong's footprints.  You can see the rings of Saturn, but you can't count them like a tree that's been cut in half. I'm not sure why some individuals have ridiculous expectations for something that's less than $100...There are better scopes out there, sure, but it's a great beginner scope for kids and amateurs. I got this for my 7 year old who has shown interest in the Cosmos. If he really gets into it, I'll invest more later and pass this to his younger siblings. For right now, it's perfect.The frame is light, but the scope is light and doesn't need a heavy duty frame. It holds the scope, which is what it's designed to do.All the pieces were accounted for, and it came with a backpack so it can be taken on trips so you don't need to buy a separate case to hold it when you're traveling in the car or walking somewhere.It does what it was designed to do. Great for kids and amateurs at a modest price to see nature, take it to a long distance shooting range, see space a bit better, and anything else that is legal to do. If you want to see a nebula, and have a few thousand dollars to spare, go for it and buy that kind of scope.For the normal people with real expectations, this is a great telescope for beginners and kids. Well worth the investment if you're unsure if you want to invest a large amount of money to see footprints on the Moon.Take care!

    It's a good scope for terrestrial viewing (astronomical viewing may need some upgrades)
  

*by D***N on Reviewed in the United States on January 1, 2019*

Celestron travel scope is a good product for what it is made for.  It is primarily a terrestrial viewing scope.  The objective (large lens in front of the scope) is good quality and is functional.  However, the eyepieces that come with the scope are (in my opinion) lower quality (this is probably done to keep the total cost of the scope low).  Without a decent eyepiece the experience of viewing objects will be minimal.  What I did was invest about $25.00 (they can be higher priced - based on quality) in a good quality 20mm x1.25 inch (a good standard starting size) "Plossel" type eyepiece (several listed on Amazon for under $30.00).  The addition of a higher quality eyepiece really changed the viewing experience with this scope.  Or, if you want to get into astronomical viewing with this scope Celestron makes an Observers Accessory Kit (#94308- you can get it on Amazon - about $70.00).  It comes with two Plossel eyepieces -17mm and 6mm-, a moon filter (definitely will need it to bring down the glare if observing the moon), a 2X Barlow lens (doubles the magnification of the eyepieces), and two planetary filters, and a case.  It seems like a well put together and thought out accessory kit (I know, another $70.00 !!).  Also (as stated in other reviews) the tripod is weak (when extended to its full length).  What I recommend is getting a sturdy table (and chair) and set the tripod (in its non-extended or shortest length) on the table.  Sit in the chair, and rotate the 45 degree prism (with eyepiece attached) until you can see what you want.  You don't need to be standing to view the stars (or whatever)!!  It is even better to get a 90 degree correct image diagonal to view the heavens with (that way you don't have to bend over so far, and you can aim the scope higher - I know even more money - actually about $45.00 for a starter correct image diagonal).  Become familiar with how the pieces attach (eyepiece to 45 degree prism to insertion in the telescopes focusing tube-and how they can be rotated to your seated position) and you will get a lot more enjoyment out of this well made product.  Remember, this is not a heavy duty alt-azimuth tripod with slow motion controls  (Celestron #93607 - which looks like it would fit this scopes screw on base).  It is basically a standard camera tripod.  You will have to "play" with it and figure out (especially on celestial objects) how to aim it high and then tighten the adjustments (which will lower the object into your field of view).  You could even buy a heavier tripod with the same type of adjustments that this tripod has - Celestron #93610- it would make the scope more secure if you needed to fully extend the legs on the tripod - I have one that I use with some of my other telescopes - you just have to get used to the way it adjusts -think each mentioned tripod is about $80.00 to $90.00  (that money just keeps adding up !!). The adjustment for lowering the object into view while tightening the tripod controls takes some getting used to, but it can be learned -and is part of the overall "experience" of this fine travel scope. Also, about the adjustments on the tripod.  The vertical (up and down) lever on the tripod - do not back it out all the way.  What happened to me is that a small nut that attaches the handle to the tripod will fall out.  So what I did was put a piece of tape over the hole where the nut is - so if I backed out the adjustment to far, the nut would not fall out (no big deal - just need to be aware that it could happen).  I have had this scope for several years, and have seen many celestial objects with it (although I use a correct image 90 degree star diagonal - as stated previously).  It is a nice scope for its intended purpose, however (in my opinion) it does need a couple of upgrades (as suggested).  Further, if you need to make the tripod more secure when it is on a table top or partially extended - try draping some "strap on ankle weights" over one or more of the tripod's braces (let one or both sides of the weight rest on the table - so you don't over stress the brace).  I had some old strap on ankle weights lying around, just draped one over the brace (without strapping it down), and it makes it much more secure.  Also, you get two ankle braces in a set.  So you will have an extra one if you need it !!  So let's review.  The most important item on any telescope is the objective lens (as stated previously) the large lens in the front of the scope.  The Celestron Travel scope objective lens is of good quality, that's where I think the product excels.  I recommend to buy a higher quality eyepiece (Plossel type), add some weight to the tripod (as suggested)-do not extend the tripod into its fully extended position (becomes really shaky and weak)-keep it as "low as possible"-preferably on a table top (add an "ankle weight" to the fold out extensions), learn how to rotate the 45 degree diagonal so you can view while seated (this won't change the correct image view of the object), and you have a very well made, fairly light weight travel scope.  I have used this scope for terrestrial and astronomical purposes, and as a "spotting scope" while at the range.  Works perfectly !!  I hope this review has assisted you in your decision (I know -I didn't intend for this review to be so long - but there you have it !!).  Have fun !!
