Product Description

The advanced LNT Auto-align technology featured as standard equipment on LX90 and ETX-Premier models is now integrated into the DS2000 telescopes! Just turn on the power and the telescope automatically finds level, senses precise north, and inputs (factory calibrated) time and date. Then it races to the first alignment star automatically without any user inputs or interaction!

This review is from: Meade DS-2080 LNT f/10 80mm(3.2-inch) Refractor Telescope with Level North Technology (Electronics)

What they offer is what you are not going to get. This telescope is to watch the moon and landmarks, you need to buy additional equipment to see more. The Autostar never works no matter how perfectly you follow the direction, you will never get to see what you want, unless you do it manually and with a star/sky map. Worst of all: is Made in China, after two days the screw to hold the lenses stop working...

Recommendation: Stay away of this.
