Product Description

This large 50mm diameter black finder scope gives you a better view of faint objects as compared to smaller finders

With a 9x magnification and standard inverted 5, you can see clearly. Unlike scopes with 20 degrees field of view, these ones have a 5 degree field of view with a crosshair aimed at the center of the screen

The big 50mm objective lens collects more light than the smaller finder scopes, so you can find more objects to train your telescope on by detecting more of them.

The system includes a cast-aluminum bracket that offers X-Y aim adjustment for almost any Orion telescope and a dovetail foot that fits most

Any telescope can be mounted to the 9x50 finder scope (sold separately) by using the dovetail mounting base

I LOVE THIS CHECKER PANEL FOR ORION AND OTHER TELESCOPES LIKE IT

4/5

This is one of the items I bought. I received two from Amazon after being charged for Despite its low price point, it doesn't make a lot of sense. For less money, you can find the same item on sale on eBay or on other astronomical Both I kept, one as a spare and one as a spare for a scope that I needed. I don't think it's worth the trouble getting in touch with Amazon about.

A finderscope attached to my Orion 6RC is out of alignment

3/5

Orion 6inch RC is what I use. There is no good alignment with my 6RC when using this finderscope. As I loosen the screws, it turns out that the screws really do not hold the scope in place. There is a great deal of wabbling.

My 8" just got even more amazing with this addition

5/5

You're on it! Having purchased this scope finder as a way to improve the finding power of my 8-inch dobsonian, I hoped that it would increase my capabilities. With this tool, I can magnify the sky and still have a good field of view despite the magnifying agent. Getting everything aligned and attached took no time at all. This is a product I am very pleased with. Compared to the red dot finder that came with my scope, this is a nice upgrade. It might be a good idea to mount the red dot in addition to this finder to improve the accuracy. You could find the general area by using the red dot first and then zoom in and focus with the magnified seeder.

It has a very bright light and is very sturdy

5/5

Despite being quite a heavy item, the bracket is very well anchored to the tripod. As long as it's aligned with the main scope, it will remain as is. There is a lot of brightness and clarity in the image. There are many deep sky objects that I can see Also, it has a premium build quality and is very affordable. This is an excellent book.

It is a very good finderscope

5/5

My newly purchased Celestron MAK C90 telescope came with an 8X21 Erect Image Finderscope, so I purchased an Orion 9X50 Achromatic Finderscope to replace it. The C90 is mainly used as a Grab and Go scope and the Orion Finder Scope works well with it. Thanks to my new abilities, I am more adept at locating planets and stars.
