Thank you so much for this video, I brought this telescope for my husband last week and have been struggling to see anything through it. This is so far the best explanation so far.
Thank you so much for this video!!! My husband purchased this telescope yesterday and he is going crazy not understanding very well, I know it will be easy once he watches this video and now will help him understand it has well.
"I bought this telescope, not as a beginner but as an experienced user, for my 16" self-built truss tube Dobsonian. Simply because of the code for the app. I could also build the mount myself. I find it a missed opportunity that you don't offer the whole thing separately without the telescope. I've seen some Dobsonian users with 20" and 24" Dobsonians using this system at ITV this year, and it works really well, even though it's still too bright for important target stars at 200x. Offer it separately for around 50 dollar or so, and it would sell like hotcakes. Clear skies Felix"
@@OpticsCentralAustralia Do you think is worth to buy a Barlow Lens 2.5x for this telescope? Or is better I invest in the future with a new telescope more powerful? Thank you
I don't think you will get much extra performance out of a Barlow, apart from on the planets. This telescope is all about showing you what is out there. The logical upgrade from here is that once you have learned something of the night sky, to upgrade to a scope with a large aperture such as a 10" Dobsonian. That will show you an astonishing amount more of the things you can find, but not see well, with the LX 70AZ.
I downloaded that app today but i cant use it because the version of my android dont support it and i have the latest. So if i buy this telescope i cant use it app sadly
Well, there are way of doing that, normally by removing the eyepiece from the telescope and attaching a special camera (say, a QHY 5-III 174C). The problem is that cameras can be much more sensitive than your eye, so after processing, the video will look better than what your eye would have seen. This gives people who watch the video an unrealistic expectation of what they'll see in the telescope. Also, everyone's eyes are different, meaning even if I try to make the video look like what my eyes saw through the scope, it might look better or worse than what you see. Finally, there's something magic about looking through a telescope with your own eyes. It gives you that feeling that what you're looking at is really there. You just don't get that in a video.
Hey Fullmetal Alkami, you'll need to get a separate phone adapter to take pictures through the telescope. Celestron sells a good one called the Celestron NeXYZ Smartphone adapter but any smartphone adapter will work fine. You just need to be able to clip it to your eyepiece.
use Google Voice translate? It works flawlessly. My friend speaks Klingon when he's drunk. Yeah it's a pain. But Google Voice translate sorts it all out for me. Although I've gotta admit😮...Google Voice translate does struggle somewhat when my Aunt Maud speaks in Ferengi 😂

Thank you so much for this video, I brought this telescope for my husband last week and have been struggling to see anything through it. This is so far the best explanation so far.
I'm glad I was able to help you! It's a really fun and usable thing, and a great introduction to astronomy.
Just bought this as a beginner. Many thanks for the valuable information.
Great information, editing and production!
A very comprehensive review. Thank you.
Thanks Vicky! I'm glad you found it helpful!
this telescope is very good, you can see good the planets and it is very light to carry if you need to walk with it. i like it very much!
Review would have been so much better if we could get a glimpse of what we would actually see through the eyepiece instead of what's on the app screen
thought the same!
Thank you so much for this video!!!

A very informative video. Thank you. I'm considering getting the StarSense Explorer 102.

Thank you for this video. It is very helpful. I just bought this telescope and I am very exited to use it
No worries! It's a really cute little scope - in the last section you can hear in my voice how much fun I was having out in my back yard!

Will you be able to see Saturn rings with this telescope?
So does the telescope have a motor and moves on selection of what you choose on the app?
No motors…you push or guide the scope to the object selected by following the direction arrows in the app.
have you been able to view planets through this ?
Hye. I want ask. After we align, can use how many time
Finder scope dint come with two holes? Is it a faulty piece or am I doing something wrong? Can someone please help???
hello sir, I want to ask is the mount shaky too much?
I downloaded that app today but i cant use it because the version of my android dont support it and i have the latest. So if i buy this telescope i cant use it app sadly
How far can the scope reach? Like to jupiter? Im not an expert
Would you be able to take a video of what your seeing through the eyepiece

@@OpticsCentralAustralia this is actually the telescope I ended up getting and i am very impressed
Does this work with SAMSUNG S20FE
could you attach a camera and take photos
Thank you
I cannot calibrate it. Moon shows at a different location than it's actual location
Can you take pictures of moon and planets with the phone in situ? Looking for a telescope for me and my son but want one that can take actual photos

Puis-je avoir la traduction de la vidéo en Français de préférence, parce que je suis Français, merci.
