Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Galileo FS-80/K-800 800 x 80mm Yoke Mount Reflector TelescopeCustomer Review: Enjoyable right out of the box Summary: 5 Stars
I received this as a gift from my husband. This is my first telescope that I have owned. The first time I used it, I had no problems seeing the craters in the moon. Beautiful! I have not spent too much time outside with it yet because it is still winter here in Michigan. I am very much looking forward to using it a lot more.
Pros:
It is very light and easy to carry
Very easy to set up
Eyepieces are very easy to use and focus
Cons:
Changing position while viewing may be difficult for someone who doesn't have a steady hand, but I am sure that is true of any telescope.
I would definitely suggest buying this telescope for any beginner. (especially those who want great views of the moon) I also would suggest buying a star map/field manual for those individuals that aren't very knowledgeable about constellations or planetary objects.
Description of Galileo FS-80/K-800 800 x 80mm Yoke Mount Reflector TelescopeThe Galileo FS-80 reflector telescope is a great beginner's reflecting telescope. The large 80mm primary mirror cell collects 33% more light than a 60mm refracting telescope. 1.25 focus housing permits the use of larger higher quality 1.25 eyepieces. Yoke mount makes the telescope easy to manage through altitude / azimuth (Up & Down, Left & Right) movement, and altitude slow motion control rod for precision adjustments. Galileo Trilogy software includes instructional videos and Planetarium program to help you pinpoint any star or planet at any given time. All of these features, along with all of the included accessories, ensure that you will have all you will ever need to observer the world around you just as Galileo did with your Galileo FS-80 refLEctor telescope.
