Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

The Celestron G5 telescope uses a DC motor drive that continuously tracks objects as they move across the sky. The motor drive comes equipped with a variable-rate hand controller that controls the G-5's right ascension motion. This telescope also features high reflectivity (HR) coatings on its mirrors for maximum reflectivity, as well as antireflection (AR) coatings on the correcting lens for increased light transmission. All of these features combine to give you clear, sharp images over a wide field.

5.0 out of 5 stars WHAT A SCOPE!!, June 21, 2001
By 
J. Mishkin "Rock On!" (Santa Barbara, CA USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Celestron G5 Telescope w/Motor (Electronics)
I initially bought the MEADE DS 114 and was displeased the way it came from the factory out of Collimation. I sent it back and bought the Celestron G5, WHAT A DIFFERENCE. SIZE - WEIGHT- CLEARITY are all better. Spend a bit more for the long term.... YOU'LL BE PLEASED!
