Thanks Jesse for producing these very informative video for beginners like myself. I like how you break down the fundamentals of what and why I should choose one type of telescope versus another. One thing I would like is you post these on your own channel so they can be presented in serial rather than hunt and search from the expervillage channel. This is not a criticism on expervillage in any way.

view planets well: Refractor
view stars well: Reflector
view both but at less clarity: Cassegrain
AstroPhotography: Cassegrain
Id pick a Cassegrain as my dream telescope or a small 76mm telescope for now that is only 60 bucks. cant beat that and what a way to start observing!

@G562UNOT if you are a beginner you should start with the binocs

If you're starting out, forget Schmidt Cassegrains. Get a large Dobsonian or refractor. Just cos they look nice doesn't mean they give the best views. There only benefit is that they're compact. Remember: the more mirrors and lenses you have the less light you'll collect. And thats what it's about. Light gathering power.
