Comments about Rigel Systems Rigel Systems QuikFinder Compact Reflex Sight with Built-in Dew Shield, Extra Base & Battery:

Almost every telescope needs an aiming device. Easiest to use are the "zero" power versions. Compared to the Telrad, the Rigel Quik Finder is far lighter and compact, and costs a bit less. In contrast to various finders adopted from air rifle sights, the Quik Finder needs no tiny hex keys either to mount or adjust it. That's particularly important when working in the dark.While one centers a "guide star" in the middle of the smaller of two concentric projected red rings, which is half a degree, the size of the moon, beyond that the outer two degree ring facilitates "star hopping," from a known star, to a typically naked eye invisible "deep sky object." Its variable illumination also helps, as does the adjustable blink rate, especially when trying to use fainter guide stars.For centering your telescope's field of view over star clusters, nebulae or even galaxies, a Quik Finder works well. Don't leave the galaxy without one!
