  • Hi, I have a 130mm Newtonian reflector. What would you say is better for the moon and planets? This or my one? I mainly look at the planets and moon and am looking to upgrade. I have £400 to spend and want it on an equatrial mount any suggestions. Thanks. Very Good Video by the way. My scope never shows this much detail.

  • @radiantracoon Hi, thanks for dropping by. If your observations are mostly planetary (moon and planets) a refractor is normally recommended. However your Newtonian reflector is a little better for deep space objects and they are cheaper for the aperture size. If you want to do astrophotography, especially on the moon, imo a refractor (like mine) is highly recommended. Otherwise, stick to your Newtonian, it should serve you well!

  • very nice ill buy one what do u recomend?takahasi or william optics

  • Takahashi has better optics but William Optics is great value for money. You probably pay up to twice the amount for the same aperture size for Takahashi. For the quality + price, WO is the winner imo.
