Great all around for newbies to get pro photos of the cosmos...but rather pricey
Color: EQUINOX 2
Good, easy to use but all of these ready-to-shoot & stack Astrophoto units are all quite pricey...I can only hope they'll drop as their popularity increases. I still waiting to see how the Unistellar stacks up against the soon to be released Celestron unit which is a close match

Avoid this trash
Color: EQUINOX 2
Overpriced utter trash The thing never produced good pictures, the app sucks, and then the battery needs replacement now which is 200 bucks. They don’t know how to make battery management systems and charge a lot of cash for a raspberri pi bolted onto a second grade optics and camera Spend your money elsewhere. Absolutely avoid.

It’s not a typical telescope.
Color: EQUINOX 2
There is no IP attached to this telescope so if you’re just wanting to look up into the thigh to see what’s wet. This telescope does not allow you to do that. It only works through a Wi-Fi or Bluetooth system that simply you tell it to go to a particular star or planet and it rotates in that direction but you’re really never aware of what you’re looking at. after using it with several high-tech persons. They couldn’t figure it out. My son has a masters in computer science and my grandchild is a genius. And my nephew is a mechanical engineer and they couldn’t figure it out. Don’t like it to figure out how to return it but it’s too late.

Excellent scope
Color: EQUINOX 2
Easy to set up and use. Within 45 minutes of setup I had obtained nice photos of several deep sky objects.

Not Sure what I was thinking...
Color: EQUINOX 2
Well, talk about a hobby killer, this has to be the pinnacle of it. All the hype in marketing, all the superimposed images of the planets etc, I should have caught on. Should have just got the NexStar 8 or something. It can find stars, but focusing and their way of adjusting the mirror...please. I got it setup found stars, then noticed nothing was round, had double-up images... oh, ok, out of focus... Nope... Mirror moved since it left the factory, yup....Havent got it aligned yet, 3 nights of trying to do it as they say... Sux, i would return it, but according to just this one vender, doesnt take returns on these particular telescope type and brand. Geez, they got a clue and wont allow returns. Dissapointed beyond. My Son, whom saved and waited and saved. I convinced him this was the one for us, etc... etc... What an idiot I turned out to be. Wrong, go with anything else but this one. The most expensive hobby killer(this one) isnt at all what its supposed to be. DO IT RIGHT, GO TALK TO THE GUYS AT THE STORE OR ONLINE, THEY WILL TELL YOU NOT TO WASTE YOUR MONEY ON IT... I SPENT $2900 ON THIS THING AND MY CELL PHONE TAKES BETTER PICS THRU BINOCULARS THAN THIS THING... BUMMER

Incredible device
Color: EQUINOX 2
This telescope was purchased by a family member from Amazon so it doesn't show up as a "verified purchase" but we did buy it from Amazon. It is an amazing device, specifically designed for deep sky objects. If you want to look at planets, do not buy this telescope. They will appear relatively small. Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn are very bright and you can see them under high magnification with a relatively inexpensive telescope. The Unistellar scopes are designed to view larger but very faint objects that are normally too faint to see in an inexpensive scope. The field of view is fixed, and is about 1/2 degree, roughly the size of the moon. With any fixed magnification scope there will be some objects (like the Andromeda galaxy) that are too big to fit into a single frame, and others that are too small. The designers of this scope have made a great choice, with thousands of deep sky objects available for view. Perhaps one day the app will be updated to provide "mosaic" software, allowing us to piece together contiguous photos into one larger panorama, I don't know. In any case, the app seems to be updated several times each year and the improvements with each update are very noticeable and helpful. The current version (May, 2024) seems very stable. As the image develops on the ipad (or other tablet or smart phone) you can capture it by clicking a button. This downloads a 6 or 7 megapixel photo (.png format, a lossless high color depth format) to the tablet which may be viewed in practically any modern photo app. It's best to do this several times throughout the exposure, in case something happens to mess up the image. As with any time exposure, the mount is susceptible to wind gusts. I minimize this effect by keeping the tripod low, without extending the legs. Since there is no eyepiece, there is no need to bend down to view the image. As indicated in the other reviews, the scope takes short time exposures, or "slices" and then aligns them and stacks them in software, internally to the scope, in real time. The app indicates if a wind gust has disturbed an image, but in this case the software simply rejects that "slice" and goes on to the next one. In this way we have successfully taken great photos of deep sky objects even in 7 or 8 mph winds while the app was often reminding us that the image was disturbed. Traditionally, to take a time exposure of the heavens it was necessary to align the telescope with the North Star and spend an inordinate amount of time fiddling with other orientation settings. This scope is incredible, in that you turn it on, it looks at the sky and figures out where it is. We have had about 90% success with this on the first attempt each night. If the sky is too bright, or if we hit a particularly dead spot in the sky then the scope occasionally failed to align properly. This was immediately evident, and so we used the joystick in the app to reorient the scope towards a more populated part of the sky, turned it off and then on again, and it picked up its location right away. I wish the manufacturer would include a more complete and technical manual with the scope. I guess the marketers are aiming for an audience of true amateurs who don't care about these things but my opinion is that most people who buy this telescope are likely to have some technical know-how and curiosity about the workings and specifications of the telescope. For example, in the app you can vary the "gain" and the "duration" of each slice. Although the "automatic" setting seems to work perfectly well, it would be nice to have some pointers as to what one might expect by varying these parameters, or how one might use them to compensate for different viewing conditions. Our first experience with this telescope was just amazing. We went for the Orion nebula (of course) and POW, there it was! It was a joy to watch as the image became stronger and stronger, the colors started to show up, the clouds around the edge started to show up. We have also been impressed by how well it will do when the sky is slightly cloudy or misty or light polluted. It is a mathematical impossibility to completely recover an image in noise such as clouds or light pollution, but this scope does a remarkable job. Still, the best images will always come from clear dark moonless nights. Almost all deep sky photographs that you find in magazines, on the internet, have been post-processed and there are many apps and programs dedicated to processing astroimages. The attached image (with resolution reduced for this review) was made with my Equinox 2, with a 15 minute exposure in Bortle 7 skies (meaning, far from optimal circumstances). I did a minimal amount of post-processing, using NoiseXTerminator to reduce the noise in the background, but that's all.

Overpriced piece of junk
Color: EQUINOX 2
This is a piece of junk. It does none of what it claims. It does in the ads if you want to automatic telescope this is not the one to buy. Customer service is horrible idea to have this resolved even though the ad red, I had a choice to get a refund even a gift card to Amazon but I don’t want to telescope and they wouldn’t take it back even though it said it on Amazon that a refund was available. I never would’ve bought it otherwise. PLEASE DON’T BUY THIS TELESCOPE. A rip off.
