Need help choosing the best telescope in the list.?
I need your help deciding which model telescope for a beginner to semi. 1. Mounting equatorial Meade scope Reflctor F = 910 D = 114 (Meade 114EQ-AST) or 2: Azimut Monte, Galileo reaches reflector M = 1100 D = 102 (Galileo FS-102DX2) I'm looking for the best overall multi-purpose use and those are my two options. Thanks!
If I absolutely had to choose between the two, I would get the Meade. I here's why. 1. The Meade has more openness, to 114 compared to 102 mm. This is not a huge difference, but bigger is bigger and corrector plate in the reflector Galileo probably has nothing to minimize the light reflects off of it. 2. The Meade has an equatorial mount. Although this particulay assembly is basically a "Mickey Mouse "agreement and can not do any astrophotography appriciable should put her motor units on it, if you can put the motor units in what is still be able to get some low magnification time (but fairly short) exposures. In fact, if you are presistant can be quite satisfied with what you get taking into account the equipment you are using. In my honest opinion favorable, you are a semi-beginner and seems to know enough to look around before buying, if I were you I would save about $ 100 more and find a used Meade or Celestron 8 "Schmidt Cassegrain Many former Orange tubes cost $ 400 -. $ 500 and are areas with the opening versatile enough to actually see things and make adjustments great astrophotography.
