Celestron NexStar 8SE 8" Computerized Telescope - 11069

Good Scope

I'm able to see crisp views of Jupiter and it's moons through a 6mm eyepiece. Overall happy with the scope. However, I did buy a dew shield, manual Alt-Az mount (personal choice), and a heavier duty tripod (personal choice not necessary). I know the Star Pointer Finder scope gets some flak but I personally like it and find it very reliable. Out of the box it was not properly collimated which lead to planets appearing like a white blob. I blame that on shipping as it was probably bounced around. Easily fixed with a Youtube tutorial and a screwdriver. I will be using this scope for many years to come and I recommend it.

No power cable and the telescope is useless without a dew heater and a dew shield. I still love it alot but please include this, i would have been ok to pay more.
