Celestron C5 spotting scope
By T Chan
I recieved this spotting scope one month ago. Even thought it is made in China (the price already implied that), the quality of the 5" optical tube is very good. The XLT coating is perfect and the focus knob is very smooth and precise. The package comes with a 6x30 erect image finder scope and a 25mm eye piece. The 25mm eye piece contributes 48X image good enough for a bright shape image for terrestial observation. The high light gathering power is excellent for me to observe the night view of Victory Harbour of Hong Kong! Simply replace with a 10mm eyepiece and you can use it as a 125X telescope to observe deep sky and the moon in great details. The image of the moon is simply impressive!
This C5 is absolutely portable and easily mounted on a tripod for birds watching and photography. Remember to use a stable tripod. It is also recommended to use high quality eye piece to match with the excellent optics!

Good Quality Image and Solid Instrument
By WBS77
The light-gathering capability of the C5 is exactly what I hoped for in a spotting scope. Able to see considerable detail even at high magnification. Appears to be very solidly constructed. Does require a VERY stable tripod -- don't skimp there. Separately purchased adapter allows simple connection to my digital SLR with good pictures resulting. Carrying case is designed to provide excellent protection.
Works well for what I wanted: looking over the surrounding scenic and marine landscapes. I have not yet tried it for astronomical observation. May be so obvious that there's no need to say it but it's too powerful and too bulky to be useful for watching wildlife -- unless they are sleeping. Or, maybe, a tired sloth. :-)

ALL AROUND SCOPE
By Mark Patrick
This is the telescope they sent on shuttle missions , build is soild the glass and coatings are very good ... The scope is by far the best I have used in the fact you can look at the stars and moon at night in great detail with a scope of this size , buy a nice lens , 20mm is good to start with , do not use cheap glass lens with this scope ... nice size scope to carry around with you and set up easy for a star party ... At daytime its great also as a spot scope and with a DSLR oh my the pixes I took though it with my canon 20d , day and night with this scope ... good all around scope for the money . BUY IT you wont be sorry !!!
