Celestron omni xlt 120 mm refractor - Celestron Omni XLT 120 mm Refractor Telescope - 21090

I waited to post this review until I had used the scope a few times. My primary use of this scope is for planetary and solar observation. I have to give the instrument high marks for its design and performance. The optics are very good for this size objective. I was very worried about chromatic aberration. The only false color visible to me is a slight blue tinge on the limb of Jupiter and the moon. The detail on Jupiter surpassed my expectations even though the seeing was only fair. I also have to mention that Optics Planet did a good job of responding to my order very quickly. Thanks to them I got to enjoy my new scope on Christmas.
Pros: Very little ca, easy assembly and setup, nice size to handle, performance for the money
Cons: RA setting circle rather cheap
