My dearest Fehlkonstruktion

In summary, the device is easy to handle and has a functional look. The whole thing for a madness value for money. To see 20% more, you need at the price even a zero-hang and then have a heavy bulky piece of furniture.

The moon is fantastic with the device. Saturn and Jupiter can recognize their kirschkern large. On a clear day with Cassini division and banded clouds. On a clear day, a touch of color creeps in when Jupiter and Mars. With a 32mm eyepiece Plössel you get 3 ° field of view, ie the Orion belt completely into the picture. The Pleiades (Seven-star) is dissolved into dozens of stars. The lid has a hole Blend if you stuck with the sun filter foil (for example, from Thousand Oaks) can, enjoy great views of their sunspots. (Never without sun filter, otherwise your eyes to charred raisins!)

To view photos as they are on the packages of many telescopes, fist, of Mars (with craters), Jupiter (with dozens of storms), Saturn (with 32 rings) and spiral galaxies (with dark clouds), you need more than one satellite, a network of radio telescopes and a nuclear reactor. Prepare yourself since no illusions!

I've tried dozens of telescopes; Lenses, diverse Newton, Katadiopter. My main was a 200/2000. I have all sent back or sold. I keep the Pluto 114/500. So, the device is optically imperfect, is important to understand what a telescope. The maximum magnification is Pi * thumb twice the lens diameter. Although you can with different eyepieces and Barlow lenses increase the magnification, but everything is more than twice the lens diameter, is an empty magnification, which means you enlarged blur. So when reading a "Buy Me-market" telescope with 60mm is 500x magnification, you know what you have to think about it. :) 200x is maximum practical power for the Pluto. The higher the magnification, the more difficult the handling. At 400x (200mm Mirror) for example you're watching even more at readjust (Earth's rotation) as the electronic tracking and without such devices are also very heavy, unwieldy, complicated and expensive in the lineup. The higher the magnification, the smaller the area in the sky is the can be observed. Through the Earth's rotation this area migrated from view, at higher magnification faster so.

Tips:

For the device, I recommend a 32mm eyepiece Plössel (~ 30, -) and a 20 to 18mm Plössel (~ 30, -) or LE eyepiece (~ 70, -). For this, a 2x and a 3x Barlow lens (~ 50, -). Although now throw me amateur astronomers with tomatoes, you can both Barlows stuck together and thus the focal length of 500 to 1000, 1500 and 3000 routes, which doubles the magnification of the eyepieces, tripled and quintupled. Eyepieces with more than 32mm and less than 12mm make the device does not make sense! Furthermore, I recommend a good pair of binoculars 6 to 10 times magnification 40 to 60mm lens Porro.
