Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

The 127mm aperture of the G-5 has 334 percent more light-gathering ability than a traditional 60mm telescope, as well as 112 percent more resolving power. This scope 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. Included with the telescope is a rigid German equatorial mount with adjustable height, aluminum tripod, and heavy-duty accessory tray. The mount features high-quality worm gears for smooth motion.

2.0 out of 5 stars Celestron G5 Telescope, January 1, 2003
By A Customer
This review is from: Celestron G5 Telescope (Electronics)
Good optics but not very portable (has to remain mounted to tripod). Difficult to setup and use. If you are new you should probably go with a computerized scope.
