[User Review]  | 05/12/12 | by George Stonebreaker
If you only had enough money or time for one small telescope, it would be my choice of a do all system that is portable, compact, reliable, and puts up great views without breaking the bank or your back.

Choosing and Using a Refracting Telescope – Book Review
[User Review]  | 05/12/12 | by Fred De Lucia
It’s both an informational review of many of the latest refractor telescopes as well as a casual walk through many readers’ chosen avocation.
A review of the Celestron CPC 1100 telescope
[User Review]  | 05/12/12 | by Tom Bryant
This telescope is a pretty good telescope. Bang for the buck, it's very hard to beat for what I ask of a telescope.
Orion XX12G Review
[User Review]  | 05/10/12 | by Jason Brown
While there are some small things that I think could be improved, the scope has exceeded my expectations overall and I am very happy with the purchase. I would buy it again and certainly recommend it to anyone who is considering it.
Coronado 12X60 BinoMite II Solar Binoculars
[User Review]  | 05/09/12 | by Scott Beith
 I thank Mr. Roberts for his generosity and I apologize for the delayed reporting on the Coronado BinoMite II Binoculars.  I hope that this review will be useful to observers considering this option for their solar observing needs.
Review on Meade ETX-80 Telescope
[User Review]  | 05/09/12 | by Gary Zapotoczny
You might be wondering if I were to do this all over again, would I still pick the ETX-80 telescope?  Well, the answer might surprise you, but yes I would.
Review of the DMK51AU02.AS
[User Review]  | 05/09/12 | by Marnix Praet
In my opinion, if you are a Moon lover like I am, buy this camera.   It is another great product from Imaging Source.
Review of the Meade HD-60 Series
[User Review]  | 05/09/12 | by Jamie Proffitt
Overall, I like these eyepieces a lot and think that for around $80 a piece the build and performance of the Meade HD-60 series warrant serious consideration when searching for a wide view eyepiece that won’t break the bank.
Review of Hubble Optics 16" Ultra-Light Telescope Structure
[User Review]  | 05/03/12 | by Hugh Bartlett
Now that I have used it a few times under the stars, I'm satisfied with both the motions (as modified) and the sturdiness. The eyepiece image settles down a couple seconds after focusing, and there is very little deflection in the laser collimator spot going from vertical to horizontal.
