Description

The Zhumell 70AZ Portable Refractor telescope is a professionally engineered refractor telescope, perfect for celestial or terrestrial viewing on the go. It’s the ideal telescope for adults and kids to use together with its coated, high-quality glass optics, including a refractor-style 70mm objective lens. This aperture provides high resolution views without adding a lot of extra weight. The optical coatings allow more light to pass through to your eye for sharper, crisper views, day or night. The Zhumell telescope for beginners is designed with several bonus accessories that make it exceptionally user- friendly. We’ve included two quality eyepieces (20mm and 10mm) and an erect image diagonal for crisp low- and high-power viewing during the day or at night. That means you can enjoy close-ups of wildlife in nature or stargaze with family and friends. This telescope also comes with a 2x20 finderscope and smartphone adapter. The smartphone adapter allows you to connect any smartphone to any telescope eyepiece with an outside diameter of 45mm or smaller to capture images and video of your discoveries. The additional magnification provided by the eyepiece allows your phone to capture great images of the Moon and planets. The Zhumell 70AZ weighs just 4.5 pounds and assembles in seconds with no tools required. The simple, intuitive design makes it easy to navigate the sky. When your observing session is over, everything packs up into the handy included nylon duffle bag. Now your family can enjoy a quality Zhumell telescope in a portable package that fits your budget.

  • Great for beginners
Size: Zhumell Z70
I'm so happy with this telescope. Easy to use and so much fun to just look at the stars and moon.

  • Great little budget telescope
Size: Zhumell Z60
First off, this is a very complete kit. The telescope comes in a cloth carrying case with an internal divider...telescope and accessories go on one side and the included tripod goes on the other. Very convenient. In addition to the telescope and tripod, the Zhumel also comes with a couple of eyepieces and an adaptor for attaching a smartphone. My use of this telescope has been limited to viewing the moon and for this it is great. I was able to see quite a bit of surface detail and the image was bright and clear. I experimented with the phone adaptor; it is a little fiddly getting the phone lens to line up correctly with the eyepiece but works well once it is in place. Complaints? Not too many, as this is an $80.00 telescope and for this price, as I said, it is pretty complete. The instructions could be more clear and maybe including illustrations would help. The tripod is a little jiggly. Just be careful not to bump it. And it's a little short but that is a tradeoff to make it so compact. The sighting scope is not much use for the moon...it works better for farther objects (though the resolution isn't quite up to making distant celestial objects visible.) I haven't tried it on terrestrial objects but it might be of some use in that situation. Overall, this is a fun little telescope and might be just the thing to spark an interest in astronomy. ... show more

  • Once Set Up it is Nice
Size: Zhumell Z50
The size and portable nature attracted me to this unit. It is sturdy for the most part. I did have 2 of the plastic knobs on the cellphone holder fall off and have to get a new one before my trip. It took me 2 YouTube videos to help me set it up and get it working. The directions only helped so much. I am excited to use when I go camping but I am also nervous that I won’t be as comfortable with it as I hope. Not the best for beginners but I bought it and I will conquer it ... show more

  • Good Basic refractor (non-mirror) telescope
Size: Zhumell Z50
This is a good basic refractor telescope. I finally used it to see something rather than just seeing how difficult it would be to put together (it's easy) Pros: I saw good detail on the moon for a hazy night for the magnification, and decent detail on the tree branches when I was looking and trying to focus comes with a relatively roomy carrying case Good view-finder - I was able to find the moon with it and then fine tune the focus knob on the telescope itself to find the moon Cons: The manual/user's guide lacks detail (very few drawings and if you don't know what the parts are supposed to look like, it's a lot of guess work or googling) tripod - while good, it's very short, especially when the telescope is tilted up near 90 degrees Smart phone adapter - while good in concept, the directions for use are inadequate, and it is too heavy for the weight of the telescope and tripod. It tends to knock it out of alignment with whatever you're trying to view. ... show more

  • Crystal Clear Views
Size: Zhumell Z70
I absolutely love this telescope. It checked off all of the boxes for me: easy to assemble, lightweight, compact, and clear views through every lens. I live in the city so I anticipated having some difficulty using this in my backyard, but this was not the case! This telescope has exceptional quality for a very reasonable price. I am also a big fan of the smartphone adapter. I am generally not good at putting things together but this took me at most 15 minutes to do so. I cannot wait to see how this thing performs outside of the city, I'm sure it will be breathtaking! I am very pleased with this purchase and would highly recommend to any other star gazers out there! ... show more

  • Wonderful telescope for kids
Size: Zhumell Z70
This telescope is amazing. I bought it for my 11 year old, NASA obsessed daughter. She loves it, and is able to identify stars and constellations. It was a little tricky for me to put together, as I didn't find the instructions to be very thorough, but once I figured it out, everything came together quickly. It was delivered quickly, and well packaged. Absolutely great for space obsessed kids - especially for the price! ... show more

  • It would be great if it came with instructions that you can understand total disappointment
Size: Zhumell Z50
And we took it to Joshua tree with us and trying to get it to even focus on a star was a mess if they would just send instructions that you can understand instead of all the technicality on a beginner it's not what it says the beginning telescope if it was they'd be smart enough to do step by step on putting it together and being able to see a f****** star ... show more

  • Amazing Telescope! Worth every penny!
Size: Zhumell Z60
My girlfriend recently took an Astronomy Honors course and was always discussing the lecturers that she was learning. After she received an A in her course, I decided to purchase this telescope and surprise her with her own. She absolutely loves it! She says it is as good of quality as the ones she has on her campus. We love taking the telescope and looking for planets and seeing the moon. This telescope is great quality and is a great purchase! If you are considering purchasing a telescope, I would highly recommend this telescope! It is easy to use and the image is truly spectacular. ... show more
