Hello everyone, Are you interested in astronomy and want to buy a telescope, but you are lost in the jungle of achromatic, ED and APOchromatic refractors, Newtonians, Dobsons, Schmidt-Cassegrain or Maksutov? This episode is for you! So take 1h30 of your time to avoid many cold sweats and financial disappointments! After more than 100 hours of work studying the entire market, and with a synthesis of the collective experience of the amateur astronomers I meet, I present to you the criteria to consider to guide your choice: I help you understand the distribution of your budget to consider, I decipher the traps to avoid, and I offer you 56 references of telescopes that seem serious enough to satisfy what you are entitled to expect from them! LIST OF INSTRUMENTS PRESENT (this remains a basis, simular instruments can be considered): You can download the list of instruments that I recommended by type here: https://www.webastro.net/upload/image... You can download the list of instruments in order of diameter then price here (in my opinion, the most relevant study to demonstrate the interest of dobson!): https://www.webastro.net/upload/image...
