i haved tried it out a couple of times now and am satisfied with it's capabilies.
the instruction manual is a little bit nondescriptive and had to download the updated version to gain full use of its functions.
after doing so, things fell into place and worked like a charm.
i look foward to better weather for future viewing of the night sky!
i am having a little finding a case to transport scope to other observation sites.
levenhuk does not make a case for this model.
