Here’s some recent video/photos shot using my Celestron Nexstar 5SE Telescope to give you an insight about what you can expect to see when using it. Thought this might be useful for people doing some research before committing to buying a telescope…
Please note: Any camera shake is because I couldn’t keep the camera still – the view through the telescope is not so wobbly! Also, where I’ve used camera zoom, there is a noticeable loss in clarity. This is the fault of the camera not the telescope. Images are clearer (but smaller) – Saturn is tiny when seen through the telescope (less than 1cm in diameter!
