I watch a nesting eagle about 200 yards across a lake with pretty good clarity while I have my morning coffee. I have it set up just off the kitchen table and use the 25mm lens, without the barlow. Very cool. **Q: Is this user friendly as described ? Since im a beginner is this the right fit for me?** A: I set it up in 5 minutes. I observed the Moon, Venus and Cassini twin stars (actually quad) with in 30 minutes on 25 mm. I have never owned a telescope in my life. The instructions are pictures describing what part goes where under them. How to set up your phone is a bit of a mess but I understood and decided to address that later. I was too excited to see Venus, and then sad when it looked like a big star, lol. There is another way to set it up to see even closer images, so I’ll be experimenting. I want a bigger one now... lol 😂. I’m managing my expectations on the 3X with 10mm parts. I just want to see it all! **Q: I cannot see thru the telescope even after taking all caps off it is stil blank image?** A: A common mistake alot of folks make is you have to understand that multiple mirrors are being used and what you may logically assume is being centered in setting it up initially is not even close to were it needs to actually be…most entry level models tend to usually have mirrors at 45 degrees, so to troubleshoot you just start at 1 end(eye piece or lens end) and making very small adjustments and keep turning and checking until you find an image…YouTube has alot of info on basic universal telescope troubleshooting help for beginners also? Good luck! **Q: I can’t get the the telescope to lock in place when we find something to look at, how is this done?** A: You have to use the little knob that looks like a T and also the long handle bar (you turn the handle bar right to tighten and left to loosen. They are both apart of the stand. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Me encantó *by E***I on 7 June 2022* Es fácil de armar, se ve todo muy bien, tienes que agarrarle la onda al principio pero luego es muy fácil de usar.
