Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Orion AstroView 90mm Equatorial Refractor TelescopeCustomer Review: Great Scope! Summary: 5 Stars
This scope gives incredible views. I haven't noticed any extra color, even on bright objects. I have viewed inside and outside the solar system and have been amazed at all the views. This is now my favorite scope that I own. It's ready to go at a moments notice, no collimation, minor setup and you are viewing. Saturn's rings are no problem, Jupiter's moons, easy. The mount is extremely stable. I can't say enough about this scope. At any price, this scope is well worth it, for it to be less than $300 makes it the best bargain out there.
Customer Review: Fantastic scope for the price! Summary: 5 Stars
This telescope has performed exceptionally well for me, consistently living up to expectations. With a moon filter and some extra eyepieces I've purchased, this scope has provided hours of easy and satifsying use. It's yielded excellent images of the Moon, Jupiter and Saturn, and other phenomena of interest. The equatorial mount is remarkably easy to use and it's quite steady. I highly recommend this telescope to dedicated amateurs.
Customer Review: Nice but the mount could be more stable Summary: 3 Stars
I have been trying to use this telescope for shooting photos. The mount is not very stable and it's very difficult to get accurate polar alignment. Tightening the azimuth causes the whole assembly to shift by several degrees. It seems like a nice starter scope though. The moon is very crisp with lots of detail and no color distortions.
