Hard to imagine getting any more for 100 bucks than this package gives you. Everything, and I mean EVERYTHING from build quality to both optical and mechanical excellence to ease of set up and use to having every bit of kit you need to observe right there in the box.INCLUDING the rock solid tripod, perpetually the weak link in even otherwise good inexpensive/entry level astro packages. I mean pick your superlative, and this baby lives up to it. The included 20mm eyepiece (either a Kellner or a Modified Achromatic (MA) produces 38x magnification, a good low-to-medium power and always the starting point for any observation. You also get a 10mm (75x) for high power closeups of the Moon, planets, some compact and bright Deep Sky Objects. Both of these eyepieces deliver sharp, contrasty,, bright images against a dark background. Also included is a 4mm aspheric, (188x.. Yikes!) but you will need ideal seeing conditions to use it, and a 2x barlow lens which doubles the magnification of any 1.25” eyepiece. If you add another eyepiece, make it a 32mm Plossl, available on Amazon or eBAY for as little as $25. This will produce 23x making it a good low power/wider field of view option. Used in conjunction with the included barlow lens makes this a 16mm eyepiece (47x), a true medium power. So you would have a full range of magnification option for minimal cost. A nice, and unique feature of the included eyepieces is that the rubber eye guard is removable and enables the user to click-snap the eyepiece directly onto the included smartphone camera bracket for easy astro photos, the Moon especially. My first light with this telescope was last night beneath an ideal constellation 4-pack to the south: Orion, Auriga, Taurus, Monoceros. I spent a good hour and traipsed through them all. Orion’s sword dangling down from his famous 3-star belt was first up and the Explorapro with the included 20mmm Kellner before switching over to a 25mm Plossl eyepiece (so 30x magnification) which served up sharp, contrasty views with pinpoint stars everywhere I pointed it: the Orion Nebula (Messier 42) including its signature trapezium, the Pagoda-shaped Messier 1981, several double stars and all manner of mini-clusters and groupings. A visual treat top to bottom. Moving westward and into Auriga, I viewed the “Flying Minnow” asterism swimming up from the constellation’s base, then the open cluster Messier 38, the super bright star Capella (the She Goat) an just below and to the right, the trio of stars that make up her “kids”. Then came several bright open clusters and the super bright star Alderbaran in Taurus, and finally NGC 2244, the bright hour-glass shaped cluster in Monoceros. The Explorapro 70 Mak will be a terrific lunar telescope (which I will confirm next time the Moon is around here), ditto Saturn and Jupiter…BUT it also comes close to holding its own on brighter Deep Sky Objects (like those identified above). What it is NOT is a wide field telescope, for example I could not get the entirety of The Pleiades in the field of view, and only about half of the stars in the “Orion S”, the long long s-shaped string of stars, dozens of them, that curls its way between Mintaka and Alnilam, the right and center belt stars. This is NOT a defect, rather a built-in characteristic of Makustov telescopes with their long focal lengths which excel at high power close ups of things like the lunar surface or Jupiter’s bands, which is why they are the choice for solar system objects. Still, within these limits, general observing such as I did last night is not only possible, it’s actually rewarding. The included tripod is flat out terrific. Both lightweight AND stable and the slow motion controls are superb——allowing to keep an object in the field of view (as the earth turns) with easy, tiny twists of the knobs. The tripod is the main reason I bought this package as I wanted one to use with my smaller refractors. The little Mak itself was an unexpected bonus. I just did not expect it to be THIS good. Moreover, my wife, who has no interest at all in my telescopes, commented on how “cute” this one is. Btw, I had an old Amazon Basics camera case lying around, turns out it is a nearly custom carry bag for this kit for times when I want to tote it over to a nearby park, or wherever. The Explorapro 70 w/red dot finder attached fill the main space. Right above is a long padded groove that holds 5 eyepieces,, and and above that a padded slot that carries the tripod’s snap on tray. It’s all there. See photos. This is an older Basics bag, I think the newer ones may have a slightly different interior configuration. And No, no one is paying me to review this telescope or giving it to me free. I ordered it through Amazon and paid for it myself. Addendum, 6/2023. Finally got around to taking some Mak 70 Moonies with my iPhone and included bracket. I snapped about a dozen photos and this is a sampling; I used a 20mm Plossl (38x), 50x) Svbony 15mm/68 apov (50x), and Orion 7-21mm zoom (middle photo; not sure of which stop I used for this as I was mixing and matching a lot but I think it was 7mm or 9mm (107x, 83x). The seeing was decent but not great.

I am a 58 year veteran in amateur astronomy and have owned many telescopes during this time. My wife bought this little 70mm Maksutov as a late Christmas present. It complemented my telescopes with a portable and easy to set up telescope that I could take anywhere. Nonetheless I must confess that I was a bit skeptic when I saw the incredibly low price. The telescope arrived in one of the best double box packings that I have seen. Everything inside was carefully packed in a separate box. Assembly was simple and easy. The 70mm Maksutov looked small in the supplied mount but it meant that it will be steady. The metal tripod is very good and the altazimuth mount excellent. After assembly, I checked the whole setup. It looked good and sturdy. The telescope optics were nice and clean. The included eyepieces are metal. I think that they are modified achromats or Kellners. Not bad for first eyepieces. The diagonal is a correct image one which is ok for terrestrial observations but not so much for astronomy. I replaced it with a good mirror diagonal. Now all I needed was a good night. First light arrived and I had the telescope pointed at the first quarter moon. The view with the included eyepieces was excellent for a 70mm telescope. I have included two images that I took using the included cell phone adapter and the 10mm eyepiece alone and with the included 2x Barlow. In one image the crater Ptolemaeus is coming out of the lunar shadows and in the other the lunar feature called Rima Hyginus can be observed. The telescope was able to resolve the Rima at high power. BTW, the cell phone adapter works only with the included eyepieces but, as you can see, it works well. These are unprocessed single shots of the moon. After a very satisfying lunar observing session did some star testing. The telescope collimation was spot on. Stars produced textbook images at high power with a nice round Airy disc and a well defined first diffraction ring. No signs of astigmatism were present. I was able to resolve some nice double stars. Even Rigel in Orion showed it's dim companion during periods of excellent seeing and at high power I could see the bump in the first diffraction ring of Zeta Orionis. This bump is the secondary component of this double. No small feat for a 70mm f/10.6 telescope. Keeping objects in the field of view was easy due to the very smooth movements of the altitude and azimuth slow motion controls. Just one observation here. The altitude slow motion control is too long for this telescope and gets in the way if your dominant observing eye in the left one. Although the telescope has a small aperture it can observe Deep Sky Objects that are bright enough. The Orion Nebula is excellent at low power and at medium power the four stars of the Trapezium are easily resolved. Messier 35, the open cluster in Gemini is also very good at low to medium powers as well as M41, the open cluster in Canis Major. The planet Mars is too small right now for even a bigger telescope. I did observe Jupiter with the telescope during the first nights but the planet was too low in the sky. Nonetheless I managed to observe two of the belts and the four satellites. Focusing is firm and smooth at the same time. The red-spot finder is ok for beginners but I would have preferred a telescopic finder. The included red-dot finder works very well after alignment. The Bluetooth cell phone shutter works very nicely too. In summary, this is an excellent package at an excellent price. The whole telescope plus tripod can be picked up and set up in less than a minute. The mount holds the telescope very steady. The optics are excellent. I would recommend it for beginners or experienced observers. It is a telescope that will be used a lot. The images speak for themselves. Good work Spectrum Optical.
