    Thank you for this very informative and helpful video. When I was looking for my first telescope a month ago, I saw your video and decided to get the Solarix 76/350. Now, since I have it and am a first time telescope user, I still watch your video to get to know my telescope better. For example today, I watched it again to know what else apart from the sun and the moon, I can see with my telescope. My next goal is to watch Saturn. THANK YOU!!

    Thank you! This was an amazing talk about this telescope! I just bought one used (my first one) for 25 EUR. I thought it'd be amazing to show my kids (4 and 3) the Moon and stuff. But I got hooked up :D I didn't get the Barlow, so I ordered one from aliexpress, can't wait to try it (I also ordered a nicer 23mm eyepiece). It's already amazing to see sunspots, Jupiter with its moons, but with a better eyepiece I'm sure it'll be nicer. A really useful upgrade would be too expensive for me now, but later on I'll buy a bigger newtonian :)

    Hi Robert, this is one of the more informative videos on RUclips.. The rest that i have seen have been nothing more than a sales pitch.
    Its really sad though that they don't include a simple cheap finder though as trying to locate specific stars with the scope is a nightmare.. unfortunately stars don't cast shadows on the wall like the sun and the technique that you show is only good for the sun. I've tried eyeballing and pointing with my finger on the top and sides of the barrel and I'm still finding it quite impossible - sometimes I get lucky..
    I'm wondering about getting a decent laser pointer (5mw) and 3d Printing a mount to attach it to the barrel.. Maybe that would get me close??
    I agree about the 4mm eyepiece, it may be ok foe x88, but useless doubled..

  • @scottogden8509

    What eyepiece upgrades would you recommend for this scope? Brilliant channel by the way, best astronomy channel on RUclips and couldn't be more genuine in days when that is sorely lacking on RUclips.

    • @paulradford4100
      @paulradford4100 3 года назад

      Robert did say that the 4mm (350 / 4= x88) and the x2 barlow (88 x 2 = x176 (Max x175 on this telescope)) was useless and after trying, to look at the moon I agree. Telescopes are reported to be not so good at max magnifications..
      He did say that he thinks the max magnification would be around x100. A 6mm eyepiece would give (350 / 6 = x58) and using the x2 barlow (58 x 2 = x116) - near enough.. so anything between 6mm & 20mm, depending on what magnification you want to aim for..

I really want to see the rings of Saturn with my own eyes, would this be a suitable first telescope to achieve that goal?

  • @Martin_Skywatcher
    @Martin_Skywatcher 7 лет назад +2

    I appreciate you trying to be fairly honest about this telescope's capabilities, limitations and warn about it's safety aspects, but
    personally I would not even recommend a "telescope" like this to an adult. The aperture (mirror size in this case) and focal length are simply to small to satisfy for longer than a very short sneak peak of the night sky. Also the fact that it is mounted on an Alt Azimuth mount and not an Equatorial mount, combined with the fact that a finder scope is missing, makes it very hard to find objects and also makes it really hard to follow them as the earth keeps rotating and the objects move out of the field of view of the telescope. I have sold telescopes to beginners for several years and my advise would be not to waste your money on cheap beginner scopes but buy a decent telescope with at least a 6 inch (15 cm) mirror or a 4 inch (10 cm) lens mounted on a sturdy equatorial mount which can be upgraded by adding a tracking motor or even goto capabilities. Telescopes like these will give you many years of satisfactory observing of the night sky and do not end the hobby prematurely in disappointment. Just my 2 cents.

    • @MartinBrada
      @MartinBrada 7 лет назад

      I think that AZ mount is more user-friendly in terms of navigating to an object and generally a better option when one doesn't aim for a long exposure photography since it also doesn't need any counter weights.
      But I agree that these telescopes of the cheapest sort are not a good way to spend money. In my opinion, they are doomed to stay looked in a shed forever after several nights. Very painful to use and do not show much.

    • @malvinacarabas5768
      @malvinacarabas5768 7 лет назад +3

      @ Martin Skywatcher .
      Respectfully disagree .
      Overwhelming majority of people considering to use telescopes absolutely DO NOT have the place to set even modestly steady mount and even 3" or 4" telescopes . Let alone larger apertures , forget about motor driven mounts . A lot of people , myself included , do not have backyards or something simile , to set up the steady good telescope mount and telescope . And probably will never have backyards in the future . They live in the cities , in an apartment buildings . So , it`s either balcony or the roof or maybe the park . Here comes into play very , very !! light tripods with small aperture telescopes , easy to take with you wherever , any place close by , and set it in a minutes to take a look at the sky . I have Celestrone 8" SCT with CGEM mount - never ever used it . There is no place to set it up . I though use very small light refractors , light Celestron c-90 Mak spotting scope and little Mead ETX-90 .
      I would always recommend , especially as a first telescope , to buy a very small , light , cheap telescope - the one which should not take to set up more than some 5 /15 minutes .
      If person is really gets interested in telescopes - it`s always easy to buy one or two larger and better telescopes .
      In other words - your "GO TO" ( not the GO TO mount !! ) telescope should be ( ideally) as portable and accessible , always somewhere under your hand , as your smart cell phone .
      I found to be ideal for myself - 50/60mm short refractors or 90cm Cassegrains plus very stable photo tripod with good gripping head .
      Again - if telescope is more cumbersome to handle on a daily / weekly basis than the cell phone - it`s for sure going to be abandoned . It will not be used as often as it could and should be . Period .
      Even rather " light and small " telescope like Celestrone 4SE or anything with that decent ( means heavy ) German Equatorial mount - is just as " comfortable" to use often , as using your Desktop PC or Mac , or even laptop " on the go " , instead of the smart phone .
      You want serious large aperture telescope with CGEM or simile tracking mount - first buy or rent a house with the backyard .
      OK , maybe a little of a stretch - but just a little .
      Clear Skies .

    • @Martin_Skywatcher
      @Martin_Skywatcher 7 лет назад

      Malvina Carabas I have a 6 and a 10 Newtonian telescope, both are mounted on an equatorial mount and as I live in a city I do take them in a car to a darkside. For newtonian (or reflector telescopes with a mirror) it is quite easy to make a dobsonian mount, which is easier to take to a dark side.

    • @Martin_Skywatcher
      @Martin_Skywatcher 7 лет назад

      Martin Brada Once you get your head around the workings of an equatorial mount, they are just as easy to direct and have the benefit they can track an object much easier.

    • @MartinBrada
      @MartinBrada 7 лет назад +2

      You do not necessarily need a backyard, a car is enough.
      But the size is not the problem. It's absolutely reasonable to have something small and portable. The problem is that it's extremely cheap, which means wobbly mount, bad eyepieces, bad focuser etc. A portable telescope can be this or it can also be a small apochromatic refractor on a decent AZ mount like Vixen Porta for at least 10 times the price. It will show much more especially on the planets and the Moon since it allows higher magnifications.
      That's the other extreme but what I am trying to say is that people should avoid these cheapest telescopes and possibly buy something more decent in the middle of the spectrum. Unless they intentionally buy it just to look at the Moon five times and then forget about it.

    • @RocketPlanet
      @RocketPlanet  4 года назад

      Hi Janah. The Mercury 705 you already own is a much (much!) better telescope than the Bresser Solarix. But that's probably not what you wanted to hear given that the 705 has been banished to the attic. The 705 is quite a short focal length instrument (longer than the Bresser though) and may not have performed well with the supplied optical accessories. It has a good quality air-spaced 70mm objective but lacks focal length. So a good Barlow (spend at least 30 GBP - 45 USD) and a good 12mm Plossl eyepiece will transform your existing telescope and let you get the best from it. I hope this helps. KR RJD A&NTV
