NexStar 8SE Computerized Telescope

Product Review (submitted on March 25, 2012):

I spent several weeks researching my selection for a new replacement telescope. I selected the NexStar 8 SE because of its size and features. I received the telescope within 2 days of ordering it. I was easy to setup and I performed the alignment without any problem. I was able to see Mars, Venus and Jupiter the first night. It has been raining for the last couple of days, but next week it will be clear for some night time fun. I already own the lens accessory kit, and I ordered the AC adapter and Power Tank for use with the telescope. I will be updating this review after I use the scope for a couple of months. For the money, I feel this was the best choice. The NexStar 8 SE gives me the most features at a price less than other telescopes with similar features.
