Bresser Messier AR-102xs Rich-field Refractor telescope
Used within the parameters of it's capability, it is a decent little rich-field refractor. However, you will be limited to powers in the 10x to 100-120x range because of chromatic aberration (color error) where you see bluish edges where bright/dark objects meet. This can hinder seeing some details on planets, but you can if you want by a "fringe killing" filter to fit on the telescope eyepieces that will mitigate some of this issue. The scope is reasonably light and can be bolted to a typical medium sized camera tripod, or, used on a telescope mount with a vixen-style dovetail. The focuser is interesting. It has a hexagonal tube and it is a "rack and pinion" which is unusual for today. As you focus, you can feel faint detents like some camera lens aperture rings. All in all, construction of the scope is very good. However, because of the photographic "speed" (f/4.5) of this lens, highly-corrected telescope eyepieces like TeleVue Naglers perform much better than less-well corrected eyepieces like Plossls. The Moon, Jupiter and Saturn all looked good, I saw three of Saturn's moons and good detail. The scope is a great richfield scope and starfields are well-seen.
