got this scope and set it up, thought it was horrible, totally useless. I couldn't see any stars or planets and the moon wasn't out. about ready to return it when i tried another eyepiece from a different scope(meade)and it turned into a great scope. why they package these two eyepieces is beyond me, they are both terrible, totally useless. if you don't have any other eyepieces for this, buy a couple, like 20mm and 9mm decent lenses at the same time. the mount is equatorial, fancy name for "doesn't move in straight line" gonna take some getting used to. tripod is flimsy. even with 60 bucks worth of extra eyepieces this is an outstanding deal.

Cons:  Could be better designed in some minor ways
Would recommend:  yes

It would be hard to find a better 5 inch reflector under $200. The primary cell is a bit difficult to remove and reinstall, so it would have been nice if Celestron had premarked the center of the mirror for collimation. On the other hand, I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this scope to someone looking for a low-priced hobbyist's starter. I would also strongly recommend getting a collimation eyepiece and motor drive with this scope.

Directions suck but I have ben down that road before... 1st night out used the 20mm eyepiece and filled the eye with a 99% full moon. Look 100% sharp but the finder scope needs upgraded.

Hi all, Just looking for some advice/help if anyone's willing. I'm not a pro at this yet, but I really want to get into planetry obs so I bought this scope. I know I can locate venus and saturn, but they are SO small (just like dots) and no matter what magnification I use, just can't seem to work it out! Thanks H
