Celestron 21044 76 mm PowerSeeker Reflector Telescope

Product Information

PowerSseekers are ideal for getting acquainted with one of the oldest and most enjoyable of all hobbies. In addition to these benefits, collimation of the AstroMaster 76AZ is easy because of its long focal ratio, though you will have to provide your own tools since none are included with the scope.

The AstroMaster LT 76AZ comes with a generic battery-powered “StarPointer” red dot sight to aim the telescope. Quick and easy to assemble without any tools this telescope comes with a finderscope and steady tripod.The completely preassembled tripod has aluminium legs and provides a stable and vibration-free platform for mount and telescope. The parts are a mix of cheap, fragile metal alloy castings and a huge amount of plastic parts, even in crucial places like the fasteners and clamps for the tripod legs. As such, using it is extremely frustrating at even fairly low magnifications, as you will either overshoot your target or watch it slowly drift out of view as the scope droops in altitude.

Although this finder is great, the bracket used to attach it to the telescope is not very stiff and can become deformed or warped over time. There will be a variety of Sigma Global Vision products and accessories available to show as well as a Sigma technical adviser here to answer any questions you may have. Astrophotography is permitted as well, but feel free to check out /r/astrophotography for more of that.Mars, as you have found, is too far away for a good view, you will have better results with Jupiter later in the year.
