Celestron Powerseeker 50AZ unboxing and review

[@zamorskymisa]

It is much better to look for good second hand telescopes where one can make a real bargain. I have bought SW 114/900 EQ2 for 35$ or Bresser 70/700+Astro 3 for 16$. Much better beginner telescopes. A sturdy mount is as important as the optics itself ! Just read some webs about byuing used optics. But there is one top 50mm telescope : Zeis 50/540. But it is quite rare and it is just lens, 2 eyepieces and a helical focuser.

[@Himanshu-1204]

I have this same telescope, you kept the eyepiece holder disk upside down and your mount is not tightened. you also have to focus sing the focus nobs. I just read the manual which came with it and that has all the information. Just read the manual

[@Dackered]

nah the stand is good you just have to tighten it much cuz i had the same problem

[@TheAlienTechs]

Maybe, but this telescope isn't recommended. There are other good telescopes from celestron u can buy.

[@MK-fn1er]

Were you able to see anything? If so, what did you see?

[@TheAlienTechs]

Only the moon, A cheap binocular will also show you the moon in the same way.

[@Astronautyona]

[@Astronautyona]

@@TheAlienTechs oh unfortunately, thank you

[@ebonlich]

Can I see other planets with this telescope Because I'll buy it In a few days

[@TheAlienTechs]

No, don't buy this one

[@bibi0x25]

@@TheAlienTechs do you have any recomendations for a begginers telescope?

[@zamorskymisa]

@@bibi0x25 If you don t mind second hand optics,get at least 80mm refractor,100mm is much better. Or 114-150mm newton on at least AZ 3 mount. If you want to overcome some learning, get equatorial mount (eq2 or eq3 equivalents). And the most recommended telescopes are 150-200 mm dobsonians! Very stable, easy to use and they can be for life.

[@LoboSolitario.__]

@@bibi0x25really late but maybe you’re still searching? Any Celestron EQ telescope will do, they’re not too expensive, and they’re useable unlike the 50az

[@kilimandzsaro7293]

Have a shot every time she says "telescope"

[@abraham_lemus]

You said 8 Kg of weigh???

[@knightray9522]

Nahh it is only 1 kg

[@briancee4603]

This scope is so shaky it is unusable. It never stops shaking.

[@TheAlienTechs]

Yep

[@RagShop1]

@@TheAlienTechs The mount fastener was put in on the WRONG side, the left side of the 'scope facing forward. Another reviewer made this error too. When you put it in on the RIGHT side, it's far better.

[@user-co3bz9yr1]

Did u ever hear of winds or not knowing howntp use it?This tepescope is perfectly fine.Bruv u can see saturns rings trought this

[@hakman239]

50mm is no good max magnify of 100x is poor the barlow is crap can’t focus properly

[@mad_clown475]

[@TheAlienTechs]

True

[@ajaydharshanv3517]

No

[@ajaydharshanv3517]

If you use properly it is an best ever telescope for beginners I am professional I am using its properly it can be view the four moons of Jupiter and the rings of Saturn Mars on the slide view of Venus and a small dot of Mercury if you use solar filter means it is an excellent solar telescope
