5.0 out of 5 stars
Extremely Pleased,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
Ten inches of aperture, portability, ease of use, high quality construction, and a great price are what attracted me to this beginner-friendly Dobsonian.
After using the XT10i a few times at a dark sky site, I quickly learned how to handle the instrument and am quite pleased with its performance. First light with this 'scope gave me a stunning view of Orion Nebula complete with a lavender hue (however, keep in mind that the ability to see coloration depends largely on dark sky conditions, age/sensitivity of the viewer's eye, and telescope aperture). I've also spied a purple Ring Nebula, the Whirlpool Galaxy, two cloud bands on Jupiter and four of its moons, a ringed Saturn flanked by four satellites, and Earth's moon using a 15% moon filter. Overall, the XT10i is an excellent choice for anyone, like myself, looking to graduate from the flimsy Sears catalog reflector of their youth. |
