This is an excellent small scope and is very handy as a grab and go. The doublet optics are crystal clear and the focuser is butter smooth. The attached pictures were taken using this telescope and a Svbony205 electronic eyepiece camera mounted on a Sky-Watcher AZ3 tripod and mount. The telescope is solidly built as is usual with Sky-watcher and I can't recommend it highly enough. It didn't come with any eyepieces nor an erecting prism but as I had these already and the telescope itself was greatly reduced in price it wasn't an issue.EDIT:Noted the 'poor scope' reviews. It's very simple to achieve focus with a short extension tube in between the draw tube and an erecting prism. The moonshots I have posted above are testament to that. I have since found that this scope makes a perfect finder scope for my Sky-watcher Explorer 200P go to. So it has been re-assigned as such . A couple of fairly decent eyepieces such as Achromat Plossl's make this a very usable scope.
