T-Ring (Nikon) – To capture photos with your NIKON DSLR using Telescope tube as high focal length lens for camera. Many of the other fittings on the tube, such as the castings at the ends of the tube and the spider holding the secondary mirror in place, are plastic, so you need to be especially careful not to smack the telescope into anything, as repair or replacement of damaged plastic parts is next to impossible.

U nleash the full pointing accuracy of your Celestron computerized telescope with a specialized telescope control software suite. The PowerSeeker series is designed to give the first-time telescope user the perfect combination of quality, value, features and power. The larger aperture Celestron Powerseeker 114EQ Newtonian Telescope has more light gathering capability with 114mm aperture, is more powerful with higher magnification and has an equatorial mount for finer incremental adjustment using the slow motion control rods. Offering exceptional value, these telescopes feature portable yet powerful designs with ample optical performance to excite any newcomer to the world of the amateur astronomer.

While still subpar, even the equatorially mounted version of the AstroMaster 76 at least offers fine adjustment for its pointing which makes it a little more useful.

A range of apertures are available in the Celestron Powerseeker range to cater for different budgets and types of Celestial viewing, the current Powerseeker range includes 50mm aperture entry level telescopes such as the Celestron Powerseeker 50AZ Refractor, Altazimuth Mounted Telescope, through to 127mm Celestron Powerseeker 127EQ Telescope with Equatorial Mount, controlled using slow motion control knobs. See the rings of Saturn, passing comets, the face of Jupiter and celestial bodies even further away. But fiddly to find things as the finder scope and telescope probably need to be better aligned (setup issue).Finance is provided by PayPal Credit (a trading name of PayPal UK Ltd, Whittaker House, Whittaker Avenue, Richmond-Upon-Thames, Surrey, United Kingdom, TW9 1EH). ED stands for "extra-low dispersion," which refers to the composition and optical properties of the glass used for the lenses. The bodies of the reflector telescope can be made smaller, all while maintaining the same level of magnification.

The completely preassembled tripod has aluminium legs and provides a stable and vibration-free platform for mount and telescope. The motor drive compensates for the earth’s rotation by slowing moving or “slewing” to keep an object in view when using the Celestron Powerseeker Telescope. Astro offers slightly better performance than smaller 100mm tabletop reflectors and vastly outpaces the Astromaster LT 76AZ, without the complexity of a collapsible tube as in the Sky-Watcher Heritage scopes.This is further exacerbated by the top-heavy, unbalanced nature of such a mount design when paired with long optical tubes like the LT 76AZ; the telescope is inherently unbalanced and will torque the mount either down or up when aimed, which renders it nearly impossible to keep in place without locking down most or all of the altitude axis. With an aperture of 76mm, fully coated lens and ability to gather 118 times the light of the human eye you get a clear, bright image.
