How to use Sky-Watcher Heritage 76 Telescope

[virtualpilot45]

The images of the planets here are all rather misleading. If you want images of the planets that good you'll probably need an 8 inch telescope, not a 2 1/2 inch. With this one you may spot two cloud bands on Jupiter, the moon will be clear 'stars'. Saturn's rings may just be viewable. The moon, however, will be good!

Can I see Saturn with my H20mm or SR4mm ? Please tell

[detentocanada]

please

Hahaha lamer's photos is fake

[alecsmart2010]

wow, what details you can see on the planets with these scopes..

[neil73]

Lol! The astronomical images shown in this video are REALLY misleading. I can't make out Jupiter that good in my telescope and its twice the size of the 76mm!

Still, the concept behind it is great, as there seems to be a growing trend in interest in astornomy this year.

i just got one today, is there anyway to have the finderscope and telescope NOT show a upside down image?

[robotmonkey73]

@sonnetxi You can with something called an erecting prism but honestly it is a waste of money. All telescopes do that, and for telescopes meant for land use they use something like that to correct it. However, it decreases the amount of light viewable, and though that is fine for land viewing it is horrible for space viewing. It's how lenses work. Putting that on an already small telescope will limit what you can view, and it does not matter at all in astronomy if the image is upside down.

Looks like its from Celestron because of its orange tube

[bfine12345]

Is there any diference to Telescope Celestron FirstScope IYA76? Please answer...

[bottle2lip]

theres no way mars will look that good in thie scope. Even when mars was at close and in good opposition , my 10in dob didn't resolve that kind of detail

its just marketing. They slap those kinda of pics on the boxes of cheap walmart scopes also.

Still this is a nice little scope for the money

[ParaglidingManiac]

Are those pictures of the planets are zoomed, or is it what you actually see throught the Sky-Watcher Heritage 76 Telescope?

[pcgamerslave]

I picked one of these up (I have some larger telescopes too), have to says its a great little thing, I got mine for £50 and the 2 eye pieces you get with it for free cost £15 each, with the small mount it would be hard to track at higher mag.

I recommend this for the young, people who want a try but cant spend much and people who lack space.

[rahmatata]

Got one today, too bad it shows the image upside down : / i need a prism or whatever that thing is called. Oddly enough it costs 1/2 of the telescope lol

[thespectacle]

Sweet. I'd be happy to see that much of the planets shown in the video. I'm going for a more expensive model for my photography. Let's just hope I get a similar view of the planets like you guys get on the 76 minidob.

[TheWwweee]

i like your vid

[wulffyau]

Nicely done, very cool little scope.

When does Australia get them.

[Murtaskegg]

Thank you for this video ! Helped me alot ! :)

[SuperJNL]

Nice mini-dob telescope!

Where can I buy one as a souvenir for my friend and how much is the unit price?

[shentakuo2]

You can buy it at any telescope store. The price is different depends on the specs. Around USD60.

[davidhp2000]

That's a cute telescope, where I can get it? I will put it on desk of my study room, yeah, I am thinking... it should have a lots of fun at camping ground...

[shentakuo2]

Hi, Cool product. I am thinking to buy one for my son.

[nlchang]

[acheng2007]
