Pros:
Accurate, Comfortable Eyepiece, Quality Lenses
Cons:
Tripod could be improved
Best Uses:
Astronomy, Bird Watching
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
I got it for my birthday, as my first scope, and it has changed my life forever! It is a very good quality instrument for the price and I got a chill when I first saw Saturn, its rings and moons, and the Orion nebula! I am still discovering its potential before considering an upgrade, but it is very easy to use! and the software by Meade is excellent!
