Excellent quality telescope

I bought this telescope after researching many brands, types, and specs.. I was looking for a telescope with crisp optics for astrophotography that didn't break my very small bank for my first one. This telescope more than impressed me in many ways. I got it with the Exos Nano EQ3 tripod, red dot finder, 25mm eyepiece, and phone adapter. I didn't need the included instructions to put it all together and it took very little time to complete assembly. It came in 2 days earlier than expected and although the carrier service just about destroyed the outer box, the boxes Explore Scientific provided kept everything safe and intact. Because of weather conditions I was only able to photograph the sun so far using a home made sun filter and let me say the images are crisp, clear, and greatly detailed. I also used a 2x Barlow adapter bought separately. The focuser is smooth and accurate as are the controls on the tripod which is strong and sturdy. It is also a beautiful telescope to look at. I would recommend this telescope for anyone looking to get into astrophotography with it's 4.3 focal ratio and light gathering capabilities and fully endorse Explore Scientific. I only wish I worked for them to be around all they offer the space exploring community. Great product, great price, and I can't wait to "Explore" the universe. Thank you for all that awaits my eyes.
