Review Summary

2010-01-09T19:00:00

Rated 3 out of 5

A little less for a little less

With the strongest eyepiece generally recommended - 9mm, you are seeing a quarter of the sun so not much fine detail. It's the same disappointment of not seeing Hubble pictures when looking at the sky through your scope. Instructions aren't clear and the largest control knurled knob is NOT focus and is factory set. Case does not fit Malta mount without some carving.
