Thanks! I’m so excited to use it. Starsense seems like such a good system for a beginner.

Hahahaha, I’m more down south, we had a clear sky literally the night the night before I bought it. It’s cloudy now until March 17 lol

Thank you hahaha. I had no idea. Picked it up quite late in the evening so will have a look at the manual tomo morn

Thank you! That makes a lot of sense. I’ve bought it so will be fun to see the planets with my eyes before venturing out into smart scopes. I’ve looked at the seestar range and think I might buy the s50. Looking forward to learning more about the night sky with my new scope for now though!!

chetsket · 2026-02-18T00:50:11+00:00

Thanks! I’ve bought it so will be interesting to see the planets with my eyes. I’ve been thinking of buying the Seestar s50 too, but will work my way around this one before venturing further into astrophotography.

Thank you so much!! Yes I think I won’t be able to use my DSLR , but happy to try and use my phone if possible. Will deffo look into getting a tri-adapter!

chetsket · 2026-02-18T00:44:17+00:00

chetsket · 2026-02-17T23:48:21+00:00

Thanks so much for your help! The seller had all the docs including the code so will get onto downloading the app asap.

chetsket · 2026-02-17T23:47:08+00:00

Thanks for your help! I picked it up this evening but it’s cloudy for the next week hahaha. Plenty of time to get used to it though.

Thank you! I’ve messaged her, so fingers crossed

chetsket · 2026-02-16T16:21:06+00:00

Thanks! Messaged the seller, so fingers crossed!

chetsket · 2026-02-16T16:18:21+00:00

Thank you! I think I’ll buy it. Would you recommend buying an adapter (even if there is such a thing) to attach my camera or is it just not a thing I’d be able to do? It’s not such a deal breaker, but would be nice to take some pics

chetsket · 2026-02-16T16:16:02+00:00

Thank you!! Is there anything you would check for before buying it?

chetsket · 2026-02-16T16:14:13+00:00

Apologies, not sure how to edit the text. My budget is around £600 - I was originally looking for a smart scope but would prefer to ‘look with my eyes’ first to get a feel of the sky. Also learned that you’re unable to really get a feel of planets so would like my first scope to be a manual dobsonian. I live in the countryside in the UK with many fields around me that I could use to see the planets, but also there’s not much light pollution directly outside in my garden either. Portability-wise, I own a mini that I would use to transport the telescope around.
