“(scratch-scratch) Hi it’s Lou from (…)” :) ))) epic…… could work for an advertising campaign though. for itch-stopping lotion :D otherwise, that’s a nice scope. perfect i might say – of course, for educational purposes ONLY ;) can you see China with it, at 625x magnification? :) )))

@Jermainesmit21 Yes, you can buy more eyepieces for most telescopes. I am going to be doing another telescope vid pretty soon.

Is it possible to get a other eyepiece for more zooming?

Hi, I want to buy a telescope for my brother’s birthday, but i’m having trouble purchasing one. If you can look at the link and tell me if it is good for the money I would really appreciate it

i have one like that i dont know how to use it tho

Probably not worth the 60 dollars. the 525 magnification will be no good. An inexpensive telescope will not work that well. Do you have a link you can send me> I will take a look at the telescope and let you know what I think.

i found soemthing similar to this, but i wonder if it worth 60$, it can magnify 525x max with the eyepices it has (the other 2 are 168 and 105)

That’s a cheap toy telescope! )o:

I think this is the scope i just brought Telstar 700×60 Refractor.

Kind of hard to say, for purity refractors are better with viewing but for your dollar spent reflectors are usually much better. You can get a much bigger reflector at lower prices.

What is better, a refractor or reflector?
