Description

This is my second telescope. My first was as a kid. I think it was about a 50mm Tasco. Horrible telescope really (the mount was the worst), but I got to see Saturn and Jupiter for the first time through that scope. I remember I bought the scope because it said up to 525x on the box.

This scope is the Celestron XLT 150R. A 5.9" achromat object with a focal ratio of f/5. Its a fast scope with a pretty good amount of chromatic aberration. The CG-4 mount is fine for a manual mount. It is used mostly for visual astronomy but I am working my way slowly into astrophotography.
