Celestron 127EQ PowerSeeker Telescope Reviews
| 65 of 66 people found the following review helpful  Solid scope with a few drawbacks, By W. H. Auden II (Sioux Falls, South Dakota) - See all my reviews This review is from: Celestron 127EQ PowerSeeker Telescope (Camera) I received this telescope as a Christmas present, and have been mostly satisfied with it.On the plus side: the optics are good, it has a large aperture, a solid mount, and comes with one useful eyepiece. On the downside, the 4mm eyepiece is completely useless. It yields blurry images and is so small it is nearly impossible to look through. Likewise the 3x barlow lens is very cheap and will only work with the 20mm eyepiece, and poorly at that. One word of advice: you will need to put a piece of tape in the center of the primary mirror if you want to collimate it properly, which is needed for sharp images. Almost all reflecting telescopes come with a mark in the center of the mirror that is used for this purpose. You can easily find instructions on how to do this online. That being said I would still recommend this telescope because it is the most powerful one you can get in its price range. You will most likely want to invest in another high...

Would not recommend. The focuser was sloppy, too much play. Disassembled it, added more teflon shims, relubed it with silicon and tightened the gear. The tripod, despite it's rugged looks is flimsy. If you have even a moderate breeze expect your image to be shaky and blurry.The finder scope is cheap, awkward and poorly mounted. As an aside - I bought a 70MM Mead refractor ($50). Is easier to use, less bulky and gets just as good an image. UPDATED COMMENTS: I have had this scope for about a year now. Still not happy with it and will use my recent acquisition, a 40+ y/o Sears Stargazer Refractor, rather than set this thing up. I have been to star parties where there are terrific Celestron Scopes being used - all Schmidt-Cassegrain - with superb images. My rating has not changed and my humble opinion is that this telescope is not worth the money. I have had the mirror out, cleaned it, have a laser collimater,...

Celestron wants you to call about product problems and not return merchandise. I tried calling tech support four times and was on hold for over 90 minutes each time before being disconnected. I submitted a ticket on their website. That was over a month ago and still no answer. The scope I bought was sturdy and quite heavy and still worked with the broken pieces. The directions required some medium skill, so if your not technically inclined, avoid this telescope. In addition, the telescope is difficult to maneuver and use so be prepared there as well. But I would seriously encourage anyone interested in a telescope to do thorough research on the different manufacturers before settling on a Celestron. I'm not giving this scope a poor rating,...
