Great Beginner Telescope!
We got this for our kid's 10th bday. She LOVES it and it is easy to use. Out of the box, we had it together and zoomed in on the moon in less than 10 minutes! We experimented with both the 10mm and 25mm lenses and they look sharp! I was surprised that the phone attachment stretched far enough to hold my iphone 11pro max! The bluetooth camera remote control shutter button paired with my phone and works well. We haven't attached the DSLR adapter yet, (and didn't notice the feature when comparing telescopes on amazon), but after I read it is an option and saw the attachment for it is included, we'll definitely give that a go, too!For reference, when using the 25mm lens, the moon's diameter takes up over 1/3 of the view. The attached photos were taken with the 25mm lens. On the day I took these, I couldn't figure out how to attach the phone attachment to the telescope, so I took this while just holding the phone camera over the telescope. You can see the craters and everything! For a beginner telescope, this is great. The only downfall about this scope, is that when you are zoomed in that far, you have to adjust the telescope every 5 seconds or so to keep the moon in view. However, to get a telescope that tracks with the earth's rotation, you're going to have to spend a lot more-so for what you are paying for, this is a great scope.
