Think twice before you order any item from "Adorama Cameras" over Amazon rating: 1
I ordered this Scope from Amazon , which the seller was Adorama Cameras.After I placed the order , I noticed the customer reviews about the product and wanted to cancel it , but I learned that this order could not be canceled from Amazon and I had to contact with the seller .I sent an e-mail to Adorama Cameras immediately to cancel my order but could not recieve any answer.Next week , after I recieved the scope from the carier and opened the box , I saw that one leg of the tripod was broken.I suggest not to buy any products from Adorama Cameras.

Sadly disappointed rating: 1
So very sad. I am on a tight budget, and I was excited that Celestron would make a budget spotting scope to fit my needs. Its focus is Horrible, it just will not adequately focus on anything, at any magnification, it is fiddly and shaky. If it is possible, it lets in too much light, it actually hurts the eye. Giving it the benefit of the doubt, I decided to try it as a celestial scope, and pointed it at the moon. Again, it would barely even focus reasonably on THE MOON for goodness sakes! Plus you couldn't really see much detail, as it was sooooo
eye-watering bright. After I let my eyes adjust again, I tried pulling in any of the bright stars that were out, and I could not find a one in the scope.
I am begining to realize that there really are not any low end spotting scopes, they just haven't made the leaps that binoculars have in affordable quality optics. Still I never imagined I would have to report so bitterly about a scope from as reputable a manufacturer as Celestron. Very sad, and annoying. The scope is now winging its way back to the dealer, from where I hope to get some of my money back.

Disappointed...more of a toy than a tool. Get what you pay for... rating: 2
I really wanted this very cool looking scope to work as good as it looked...but it doesn't. The biggest problem I have with this scope is not the clarity, as it's fairly clear at lower power 30-45X (60-90X is a joke), but the focusing system is just HORRIBLE. Is mine broken? It's almost impossible to obtain a clear, crisp focus and there is no logic in the operation of the focuser. It seems to just "jump" around at random at times. Just when I'm about to give up, I attain something like a focus...I really think that Celestron should buy all of these back and save their name from the shame of these poor quality scopes. These really give "made in China" a new meaning for junk. Come on Celestron, I own many of your fine products, why would you let us down like this? I grudgingly gave it 2 stars ONLY because I can actually see the holes in the target from 100yds, after several seconds of focus fiddling. At distances beyond that I would wager it's pretty much useless. I would return it but I essentially got it for nearly nothing using gift cards. Had I paid full price personally, it would already be shipping back to Amazon. To be fair I wouldn't expect much from any scope at this price-point.
Tripod is cheap plastic but functional (barely). Also be warned that Celestrons "Lifetime" warranty will cost you $35 when you need it. If you're needing a good-serious, clear spotting scope, avoid this one. Sorry Celestron, you know it's the truth.

Nice deal for a nice price. rating: 5
Good power and spotting capability for a price quite a bit less than the better known names. I was a little leary at first but that is no longer true.
