Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Celestron NexStar 130 SLT Computerized Telescope
Customer Review: Great telescope
Summary: 5 Stars
I have been using a smaller "beginners scope" for a few years and was invited to a friends house one night and saw this telescope. We used it and once I learned how to use the skyalign program it was a breeze to use. It was so simple to just enter what you wanted to see in the hand controller and the scope goes to it. I like it so much I ordered my own. My beginner scope was fun to use but it was difficult to keep moving the scope manually to point at what you want to find and the 130 is motorized so all you do is push the buttons on the hand controller to move the scope.
My friend told me to buy the DC power cord if I plan on using the scope away from the house though it runs on battery which I bought with it. Though the scope looks big it can be taken apart and moved with ease and just weighs a little over 30 pounds.
Customer Review: Great scope for an even better price
Summary: 5 Stars
I was a beginner astronomer and I must say that this christmas gift has done me right. It's an easy scope to use and gets great visuals of space. I really enjoy examining the craters of the moon, but you can also see some other great objects as well.
Well worth the price and great for the beginner to intermediate astronomer. I brought it to my astronomy club and they all got a kick out of it and the sturdiness of the tripod. They all approved even with their 12-16inchers my 5 incher held it's own in their eyes. Great starter scope.
