I have a celestron cometron 114az with 20mm eyepiece, what is the best eyepieces to buy to have a beautifull view?

Brown Shirley Walker Steven Martinez Donald

I still can’t see anything when all the lenses are together I just see white ligjt

I just upgraded from a standard mirror diagonal that came with the telescope to a 99% reflectivity dielectric diagonal and the performance is incredible. A dielectric diagonal is the way to go.

Are you able to attach a DSLR camera to the eyepiece and have focus.

My favorites are Orion's 20x80 ED binoculars. I think 20x is the perfect magnification. They, of course, need a tripod. RIP Orion 😞

Took your advice but can’t find this one new or used since the video is several years old. Do you have another suggestion? The one that took its place does not get good reviews. Thanks, Marty

6:45. just put them on a tripod

We have just received this but have no clue how to get started seeing things. The scope is assembled and ready to go.

Are you the Allan Hall from Selah? Love your music!

Any solution to why I see the image upside down?

What are your thoughts on the 1.25 eyepiece and accessory kit?

Thank you again. ❤❤

Thank you. I just bought this for myself for my 61 birthday. Also got the 1.5 eyepiece and accessory kit. I reallllllly needed this help. Thank you for having a beautiful heart and sharing 🥰🥰🥰 God bless you

What would you suggest to get for a beginner that wants to see more than the moon and stars

I would really like to buy one but there are none in Europe. I cannot find them in Europe.

hi i just wondered if you are still posting videos on YT also i am a amature photographer and dabbling in using a Celestron c70 scope attached to my canon camera , i noticed that my images are upside down so i was instructed to purchase a diagonal prism which i wondered if you can recommend a reasonable make please , many thanks rick t

I found a zhumell 12x70 for 52.00 so I am completely trusting your judgement and experience and ordered it. I have an 8 x 30 ( old unit) That is a real pleasure to scan the sky and was contemplating a 15 x 70 size Sky watcher. Hopefully this unit will be a pleasant upgrade. Thanks for your video.

Great video Allan 👍

Thank you i would have never figured this out i hate reading directions i usually do without 😂

Wish I seen this before I bought a 6mm and a 4mm lens

Is zeiss 8x30 good for looking to the night skies?

I agree with most of what you're saying however the magnification that you want for starting out with astronomy should be stronger than 10 x 50. That won't give you an experience that will make you want to keep pursuing the hobby you need to go up in your magnification to get satisfaction out of actually doing it you're wrong that in that point and I'll argue that till the day I die.

What would you recommend A 10x50 or a 12x70? And in which cases

Thank you for this informative video. Im a bit new to my telescope, it came with a 25mm. I also got a kit of additional eyepices and a barlow, that has a 6mm, 8mm, 13mm, 17mm, and a 32mm. For fun i tried to use the 6mm on the moon and thought i was doing something wrong, i could not get a clear view no matter what. I will just stick to the 25, 17, and 13.

Video is helpful for me assembling this telescope, however, what would have this video far better would have been the camera up close to see each step. It took a bit to figure out what you did in a few steps because the camera was too far away from the telescope and its assembly parts.

The Astromaster 130 has a spherical mirror, the AWB (Skywatcher Heritage) 130 has a parabolic mirror but what does the Gskyer 130 have? One review says parabolic mirror, and another says spherical.

Intro was so me

I picked this scope up yesterday on facebook marketplace for $120. Immediately used it to look at the moon. I love it. The EQ mount is a little hard to grasp, just because there are so many knobs that you need to tighten. Actually aligning it though took 2 seconds. I don't understand why some people hate EQ mounts. It was super useful trying to keep just the moon in frame. I can't imagine trying to keep the moon in frame without it

How do I now if i need the 1.25 or 2” diagonal? I just got an orion telescope but it needs the eye piece diagonal

I just bought a 15 x 70 Celestron binoculars and the are Great. And have a 25 x 70 on order.

How about made in USA mil spec Fujinon 7x50 for forty US dollars ? Good deal?

I have 2 of the Celestron 70 travel scopes I have had for over 20 years. The Powerseeker is a fine scope also. Thanks for the video. All those Celestron small scopes are Good to me.

To my dismay, after contacting Zhumell customer support, they confirmed to me that they are a Celestron company. I hope that there somehow really is a difference between the Zhumell's and the others because I just ordered them before hearing from the company.

If this were 1973 and you were spending $99. on binoculars, I'd say you could likely get "decent" (that is usable) quality. But TODAY? In 2024 ? A pair of $99. anything is a THROW A WAY ! For about $250. or so, you can get a pretty good pair of binoculars. And I always recommend a 7x50 for someone's first or "Starter" pair. At the top end, for star gazing? Unless you are willing to lay out some pretty big bucks just for the mounting, the "Biggest" pair I ever recommend for Astronomy is a 11x or 15x pair with 70mm objectives. And even these will need either a hefty tripod or "Home-made" mounting of some sort. Yeah, I know! You go to a big, well attended Star Party and there are folks with 25x80's. Or even 50x100mm/125/150mm binoculars . Those are very special optics used only by experienced and dedicated observers. Sure, take the stool and spend a few minutes enjoying the view! I always do! But, back home 🏡 down on the farm? I can sit and enjoy, for AS LONG AS I WANT, my favorite sights with my own, limited collection of quality instruments. CHEERS! Clear Sky's to you, and THANKS FOR YOUR CONTRIBUTION to educating the Public.

This video helped me so much I was struggling with it at first!

It seems that ever since Orion took over Meade, their own product line has gone down hill. I don’t really deal with Orion anymore. That is a true shame.

Good video. Helped me decide on the diagonal I need. Thank you.

I love the program, but it's a resource hog and will eventually get Windoze to start extending the swap file and then...you're rebooting. Or the registry is corrupted. Anyone else noticed this? I'm seeing it on Windows 10. My release is the one that comes with high end Celestron purchases.

Hi Wich refractor would you choose... Carson RP 200 80mm Celestron astromaster 80mm Gsyker 80mm or 90mm Is There Thay Much différence between 400 ,500 mm focal lenght. Thank you Jake, Canada

600 now. Dollar losing its value

Talk about exit pupil. Aperture ÷ Magnification Young eye pupils at night open as much as 7mm. As we age our max pupil opening decreases. Maybe to 5mm. Need to measure it. 9x63 has exit pupil 7mm. Suited for young eyes only. 10x50 exit pupil is 5mm. Good for the not so young people. Please look into this dimension of exit pupil size and how to measure ones exit pupil. All of the light from objective must enter our pupils. No advantage in wasting some of the light if our night pupil is not opening wide enough to be equal to or larger than the exit pupil of our binoculars.
