Celestron NexStar 8 SE Telescope # 11069
OK scope
This was the first scope I have had in several years. It has good optics but the 3 star alignment procedure doesn't work very well. It generally takes several tries to get it to properly align. Also the battery plug to hook up an external battery ...

Celestron NexStar 102SLT Computerized Telescope # 22096
Nexstar 102 SLT
The Celestron 102 SLT is a f/6.5 wide field scope that performs quite well for an achromat of this size. There is the usual false color on bright objects as expected but the views are still sharp with a good level of contrast. The telescope also has ...

Vixen VMC200L 200mm f/2.5 Modified Maksutov Cassegrain Reflector Telescope
Good Imaging Scope
I owned my Vixen VMC200L for about a year and used it quite often. I bought it mainly to use for planetary imaging with a webcam. The VMC uses a 200mm diameter fixed F2.5 primary mirror and has a 3.9x magnifying secondary mirror with a meniscus cor...
