Difficile à stabiliser (pas assez lourd, poignée plastique peu précise) et lentilles avec grossissement faible... on voit les planètes un peu plus grosses qu'à l'œil nu mais pas de détail supplémentaire réellement visible... déçu.

Great telescope. Cool design. Simple and easy to use. Able to use different lenses. And looks professional.

I received this as a Christmas present and it’s PERFECT! I’ve always been interested in astronomy, which my wife knew, and she gifted me this as a surprise. It’s easy to assemble and comes in a very nice nylon carry case. Can’t wait to use as soon as weather cooperates.

As a newbie to stargazing, I found this telescope extremely frustrating to use. I'll keep it simple.- Telescope mounting: Wiggles way too much, easy to lose target. You have a knob with a screw that holds the telescope to the tripod, but even when I use all my might to hand tighten as far as I can, the telescope still wiggles up to 1/8 inch or so, which may not seem like much, but that star or distant planet you're trying to focus on? Gone.Solution: Channel locks/crescent wrench. Was able to stop the wiggle/wobble afterwards.- Vertical tightening knob: My main frustration. Once locked in on a star/planet, prepare to fight the telescope from moving when tightening this knob. It wants to move your telescope as you tighten it. That hard earned planet you're trying to lock on to? Buh bye. And even if you get locked on and fully hand tightened, the weight of the telescope seems to slowly drift downwards. I'm not sure if I have just bad screw treads or what, but it is frustrating.- Horizontal knob: works decent, no weight is fighting you here so hand tightening seems to be all that's needed.- Tripod height: Very short, prepare to be on your knees a lot. Don't have my tape measure handy, but seems to be around 48-50ish inches (3ft, just above waist high for average height).- Little scope to target what you want to focus on: Same with previous knobs, the screws don't hold it tight, expect a lot of wobble and wiggle. Screws aren't meant for a screwdriver, hand tighten only. Which lies their problem. The mount piece will wiggle out of position, thus making it pretty redundant unless you don't touch it at all. I'm going to try to use something to get it past hand tightened. Adjusting the sight is pretty ridiculous considering that we're paying almost $200 for it. Three little screws you hand tighten to slowly position it where you want. Prepare to spend a bit of time fine tuning it.I don't know if I'm wrong, but I thought $180 telescope wouldn't be considered a cheap telescope, but this feels like a cheap telescope in every way except price.

This was a Christmas present for our son - he loves it. Easy to use and very clear to see the moon and stars. Really good value for money. We recommend it.

This was a Christmas gift for my 8 year old son, an aspiring astronomer and his first telescope.The package came very well packaged. The telescope was very easy to set up and there's a great booklet to help too. The carry case makes the telescope and tripod perfect for camping trips and it is lightweight but sturdy construction allows for easy repositioning when required.So far we've got great views of the moon. I'm sure this will be a gift long loved.

This telescope Is good quality and nice size. Got very good pictures when I adapted the scope to my phone. All works good except getting it to stay still was the hard part. But overall good telescope.

This telescope is easily transportable and durable when traveling. The telescope is great for going out in the desert and stargazing. Assembly was super easy and quick, and it was just as easy to pack it back up. With this being a large telescope, it did not take up a lot of room. The visual quality was better than I had with other telescopes I've used. A beginner can use this and learn a lot, but also a person experienced in astronomy will find this a good personal telescope. The company had the telescope arrive when it was promised and was easy to do business with.

This is our first telescope as a beginner, my daughter and I put it together the installation is quick and easy! The quality of the scope is amazing! The photo I posted is what we saw and it’s right to say it looks amazing. The photo is 100% mins after I adjusted some light. Besides the moon, we were able to see Jupiter and Saturn. If you’re looking into getting a beginner scope then I say this is the one for you!

12x50 High Powered Monocular for Adults and Kids -Monocular for Hunting Wildlife Bird Watching ….The Monocular came boxed, other items included, a lanyard, a storage pouch and cleaning cloth. There are no instructions, or company information on the box other than the country of manufacture. The only identifying feature on the monocular is the name ‘EastPole’ fixed to the side of the focuser.I found it to be easy to hold, it has clear optics, a very smooth focuser that can easily be operated by your finger. On the underside is a ¼” thread for mounting on a tripod which also has a screw which attaches to the supplied lanyard. There are lens caps on both the lenses and the viewing lens has just over 9mm of travel on the eye-relief. The body appears to be in a rubber sleave, so easy to grip and won’t slide out of your hands.The major gripe about this monocular is the size of the objective lens, measuring at around 43mm at best, so I am not sure how they measure these to come up with 50mm! Regarding the lanyard, I’m not sure of its purpose, as you would hardly have this monocular dangling on the end of it!This is not a bad monocular at all, for this price (currently under £20 at time of review), you would normally get some plastic toy, but this is far from it. Ideal for casual bird watching, a bit of star gazing or general spotting.

ERFAHRUNGEN mit "12x50 High Powered Monokular für Erwachsene und Kinder -Monokular...." & FAZIT: 🔍Das 12x50 Monokular wurde in einer Buntdruckproduktverpackung geliefert in der sich eine Trage-/Umhängeschlaufe, ein Reinigungstuch, das Monokular in einer Transporthülle befanden.Für den Heim- und Hofgebrauch ist das Monokular der Marke SOLOMARK gut zu verwenden, aber "High Powered" ist hier nun wirklich nichts. Die Leistungswerte des Monokular sind unspektakulär. Wer hier erwartet, ein hochvergütetes und stark abbildendes Monokular zu ergattern, der wird von der Wirklichkeit enttäuscht werden. Es ist ein einfaches in diesem Preissegment üblich gut gefertigtes Monokular, das dem Preis aber gerecht wird. Wer mehr will muss sich im Hochpreissegment namhafter Hersteller umsehen. Es hat akzeptable Abbildungseigenschaften und auch die Lichtstärke ist ordentlich. Mit einer Austrittspupille 50/12= 5,00 mm ist es für jüngere Menschen in schwachem Umgebungslicht ungeeignet. Im hellen ist das egal, das sich hier die Pupille automatisch verkleinert. Ältere Menschen haben mit zunehmendem Alter immer kleinere Pupillen, so das dieses hier nicht so ins Gewicht fällt. Aber 5 mm ist auch schon für ältere Menschen gewöhnungsbedürftig, wenn man weiß das diese immer noch gute 5-6mm haben. Das macht sich auch bei diesem Glas bemerkbar, obgleich die Schärfe bei ausreichendem Licht schon beeindruckend ist. Nur wenn es dann in die Ferne geht, so nimmt das Vergnügen mit jedem weiteren Meter über ca. 100m immer rasanter ab. Um das Monokular im Wald und auf der Wiese für einfache Beobachtungen zu verwenden, reicht dieses locker aus. Das Glas an sich ist einigermaßen robust gefertigt, hat eine ansprechende Haptik und die Bedienbarkeit des Objektiv- als auch des Okulardeckels sind gut gelöst, wobei es keine Befestigung für den Okulardeckel gibt, so das dieser verloren gehen kann. Wer nur ein Monokular für einfachste Beobachtungszwecke sucht, der ist mit diesem hier gut bedient.In der Anwendung zeigte sich das Monokular als robuster Begleiter im Handschuhfach eines Wald-/Wiesenfahrzeugs um schnell einmal ein paar Dinge in der Ferne ausmachen zu können. Auch Identifikationen auf Entfernungen bis 100m waren kein Problem, wenn man es denn schön ruhig hält. Alles in Allem ein alltagstaugliches Glas für den Otto-Normalverbraucher.PRO: 👍🏻 ➕ Monokular ist gut und robust gefertigt ➕ Abbildungsleistung auf nähere Entfernung noch recht gut und Lichtstark im Hellen (bei Sonne) ➕ gute Haptik und leichte Bedienung ➕ Okularmuschel für Brillenträger einfahrbar ➕ noch akzeptables Preisleistungsverhältnis (26,22€, Stand:12.07.2023)CON: 👎🏻 ➖ nicht für junge Menschen in nachlassendem Licht geeignet ➖ keine OkulardeckelsicherungBEWERTUNG: 🌟🌟🌟🌟Das "12x50 High Powered Monokular" hat in der praktischen Anwendung einigermaßen überzeugen können und verdient damit auch eine Kaufempfehlung an die AMAZON-Kunden/Kundinnen/*
