Each AstroMaster model is capable of giving correct views of land and sky. The AstroMaster Series produce bright, clear images of the Moon and planets. It is easy to see the moons of Jupiter and the rings of Saturn with every one of these fine instruments.

 Nice Scope for the beginners. |

| Reviewer: Sricharan Vemuri, |
I bought this scope recently a month ago. I am really impressed by the quality of the scope. The viewing is easy and really good. The magnification is pretty good. I looked at moon and pretty impressed. The best part is you can purchase other eye pieces which I strongly recommend at a very decent price.
I would recommend buying a powerful eyepiece which you can get for approx $75 if you are planning on getting serious. |
Great for sky and land

| I gave this telescope as a gift for someone who has never had a telescope before and she absolutely loves it. In addition, standard shipping from Adorama was extremely fast--I ordered the telescope 4 days before Christmas and it arrived the 23rd. I was very impressed. |
Great Gift

| I gave this telescope to my fiance for Christmas and he loves it. He never had a telescope before, but he was able to find things with it still, so it was "beginner friendly". Overall, if your looking for a telescope for a beginners, that is also high quality, this is a great choice! |

I'm very pleased with this telescope. I've always looked up at the stars in wonder, now I can see more then I thought were out there. This is a great starter scope, from what I've been told by people who love this hobby. The telescope lets you view the sky to see stars you can't see with your eyes. I'm disappointed in the eye piece you receive with it though. The field of view is very narrow, hard to find the stars you want to see. I was given a wide angle eye piece, to use from a friend, which made my viewing pleasure wonderful. I went from looking at a 13" color tv to a 36" color tv. That's the best way to describe it.
I'm glad I got my telescope and will enjoy it for years to come.

| The optical quality is quite good, with a good field of view and very limited spider effect. The star pointer is fair to poor however if used with a low power lens (25mm or larger) it will suffice. Barlow usage is excellent and I'm amazed at lunar observation. Only other gripe is when slewing at a low polar angle you can run into the knobs. Mount seems solid however I don't care for the dec. setup. The focuser could stand a little more travel but is adequate for this scopes capability. Overall I give it 5 stars for lunar and terrestrial use, four and a half for planetary (excellent on Jupiter and Venus, struggles with Neptune and Uranus) but with some filters I hope to improve that. Deep sky is fair. The star finder I give a one. |
