Hello all,
I am interested in getting a telescope mainly looking at the planets & galaxies. I'm not really interested in astrophotography at the moment but I guess this may come in the future. The above 2 scopes are in my price range & was hoping somebody on here with more technical knowlege of scopes etc could advise me what they would consider the best buy. The magnification of the Nexstar 4 SE using a 25mm eyepiece is given as 53x whereas the SLT 102 has 26.4x. Is this all a newbie astronomer, who just wants to take it out into his back garden & have a browse around the sky, should be interested in. Both scopes are obviously computer controlled which makes my life easier when trying to find things. The Nexstar 4 SE is quite a new scope, I believe, so if anybody actually has one & could provide their comments that would be great. Thanks in advance, Dave |
