 | Carson 7x18 Close Focus Monocular
[User Review] | 08/07/10 | by Blaine Hebert
| | | If you need a close focusing monocular for occasional use or for experimentation this one might well serve your purpose adequately. For the price it is a bargain. |

 | A review of the 31 Nagler versus the 32 Edmund Erfle
[User Review] | 08/07/10 | by Mark Swanson
| | | There is no question that the 31 Nagler was much better edge corrected than the 32 Edmund. However, this full field sharpness came at a price. I mean that at the center of the field, the Edmund 32 was clearly sharper. I believe that the only area that the 31 Nagler beats this Edmund is in the outer 35% of the field where it is significantly sharper. |

 | The Orion Intelliscope hand controller
[User Review] | 08/07/10 | by Klaas van Ditzhuyzen
| | | Orion has made a nice object finding device which works
fine without power consuming slewing motors. When they issue a new firmware version with the issues above fixed then it would be even more useful. |
|
 | Zhumell Z8 Dobsonian Telescope
[User Review] | 07/27/10 | by Kyle Bogosian
| | | This is a very good choice for a beginning astronomer (however, I would also recommend purchase of an additional eyepiece in the 12-18mm range.) Someone who has ready access to a dark sky site could use this scope for years without running out of things to see. |

 | Stellarvue SV50 finder scope - spotter version
[User Review] | 07/27/10 | by Malcolm Bird
| | | Overall, the SV50 is a remarkably robust, attractive and good performing finder/scope compared to the plethora of offshore finders flooding the market. It exudes the feeling of a quality product that has not been corner-cut to death in the name of price points and volume marketing. |

 | 3 Criterion Dynamax 8 scopes and B&L4000
[User Review] | 07/25/10 | by Mark Swanson
| | | I am a visual oberver and every Dynamax 8 and the B&L 4" have had excellent tracking. No noise, no jumping images from tracking errors, smooth movement in dec and RA.Only one of them had some image shift. |
