Title: hi help on this telescope Post by: duttothered on 28-Oct-2008 19:56:58 UTC could anyone please give me some advice on this telescope
Seben 6" Reflector Telescope with Automatic Motor Drive its for sale on ebay by a firm called Seben thanks in advance Title: Re: hi help on this telescope Post by: brendan martin on 29-Oct-2008 12:49:37 UTC Hi there, my first telescope was the Seben 6", I found it to be a fairly good telescope although collimation was critical with it being catadioptric. It was a good telescope for the Moon and planets but not brilliant on deep sky objects due to its long focul length. The mount is not brilliant it could be sturdier, but for the money they are a good starter scope.

This way we can talk and see where your interests lie and we can show you different types of scope and find what suits you best. We are open every Wednesday to the public from 7-0-clock in the evening.
Brendan
