Celestron Ultima Refractor 80 Straight Spotting Scope

I bought this really after reading a few reviews on using spotting scopes for star gazing. It has turned out really well. I managed to see Saturn the other night and even the rings around it. I can defiantly recommended this bit of kit for its price and it's quality. Just make sure you get a good sturdy tripod! If you don't have a tripod, research a good few brands and then look on gumtree. You can often get good prices on there. I ended up getting a brand called velbon which has been very good.

I suggest buying from PicStop for the seriousness speed and courtesy.

I am very impressed by the quality of this spotting scope, both the optics the build quality and fantastic value for money. I use it for target shooting and need a scope which can define shot holes in a target without any aberation and in low light conditions. A similar scope by another manufacturer would cost 3 or 4 times the cost of the Celestron Ultima. This scope more than satisfies my requirements. Its the scope that Volkswagen never built !
