Question 2

The objects that are in my sight from the finderscope, I am not able to see those objects in the main scope. How to allign the finderscope properly?

Accepted Answer

Hi Khushi, You have 50AZ telescope. FYI, I have been using 60AZ. Please don't consider you can see any planet like big football by this telescope. This is just an entry level telescope by which you can learn many thing before you go for high range telescopes. If you have enough understanding of reading star chart, you can see many astronomical objects through it. Google sky map (this Android app available on Google Play Store - you can spot easily with this app) can be the best companion while you operate this telescope to see planet and nebulae positions. I have seen Jupiter, Venus, Saturn, Moon craters and many common nebulae through this and image quality was good (not best, and you must see technical details and price tag before expecting much. For 50AZ, Product comes with three eyepieces, 20mm, 12mm and 4mm and one Barlow (3x). Avoid using 4mm, 12mm  and Barlow as it is very difficult to find object. 20mm is just fine. Tripod is again suitable for price tag. Finder is useless.Follow the steps what Amit suggested:For objective lens, there are little alignment issue between finderscope and main scope. You need to align the object to center of "+" in finderscope, and then try to adjust the main scope +- few mms left/right or top/bottom, until you are seeing some bright spots and then use the focus control to get the exact focus.Thanks,Rakesh

Question 3

Can we see milky way from this ?

Accepted Answer

Sir if you live in a place with low light pollution, the you can see the Milky Way from your naked eyes, because we ARE in the Milky Way. If you need to view objects inside it, then you're welcome. You should go to Sariska. It's the best place to see the Milky way WITHOUT a telescope
