Quick scope - Celestron FirstScope Telescope Accessory Kit

This item is inexpensive and, once set up, is easy to use. Mounting accessories were helpful. Fine tuning requires patience because the three barrel knobs produce someone shaky results. But, with patience, one cannot beat it at this price. Accompanying lens bonuses have been tried yet. Star chart from the disk is good. There were some confusing moments in finding distant objects due to font size and trying to figure out exact location of named objects. Overall, fun to use and much better than a book or hand held "observatory." Particularly good results when increasing zoom and finally seeing an actual photo of the object. Makes it much easier to identify that object when finally found and viewed through the telescope.
Pros: Easy to use; Flexible mounting hardware included; covers for objective and eyepiece; nice software
Cons: Fine adjustment knobs produce iffy results
