Digital camera reviews of Celestron SkyScout Personal Planetarium
Digital camera Review: A Must Have!
Summary: 4 Stars
First, there are a few probles as with any electronic "new" device. But these are minor. Celestron is all over the issues at hand and updates the firmware regularly! All of the issues are addressed in firmware updates and mine works flawlessly for what its supposed to do! The shut down problem has been addressed in the newest update as well. There is a wealth of knowledge in the database for the objects your looking at and the fact that I can use this along with my scopes out in the field WITHOUT the need for a sky chart is worth its weight in gold! If you have a polar alligned mount, finding polaris is a snap! Its like the way we all felt when remote control came out for the TV! I can now be lazy in this hobby too....lol. Not only that, but I can attach this to my Takahashi fsq-106 clamshell and use it as a guidescope!!! OK, it wont put you exactly on target at high power but it will get you damn close at lower ones....Attach a laser pointer and your a college professor in a split sec. I did only give it a 4 for 2 reasons....1. The battery life sucks, get rechargable ones asap! and 2. they should have designed this to accept lens caps! 400.00 for this equipment with NO lens protection is nonsense! having said that, i couldnt be happier with this purchase. I cant wait for the add on cards to come out!
