This review is from: "Konus - Konusky-200, 8"" equatorial reflector" (Electronics)
Fortunately I got my Konus 200 from a reputable telescope store. They were using it on the sales floor as an example of a bad scope that you should not waste your money on. The scope itself is a cheap toy on a wobbly mount. The mount is so loose with so much backlash in the gears it cannot be used for photography. I bought it with the intention to rebuild the mount as a hobby project. The scope itself performs surprisingly well for how poorly it was made. But it does live down to its poor reputation of being difficult to focus. So for backyard fun in poor viewing conditions I love the toy. But if you want a real telescope, double what you were wishing to pay, and go Orion, Parks, Celestron, etc. and leave the toys behind.
