Celestron C8
The Rodney Dagnerfield of the telescope world (I just can't get no respect).
Small Scope Nirvana: The TeleVue-76 APO Refractor
The TeleVue-76 is a substantial upgrade in comparison to my older TeleVue Pronto. The TeleVue-76 is one of the finest small scopes available.
Meade 20mm 5000 Series Plossl
I have given the Meade 20mm 5K Plossl a "shootout" with three other eyepieces. Is this a "poor man's Panoptic?"
A new contender on the Alt-Az block!
So you hear about a new mount; then you hear one of the only ones shipped out has been sent back. Do you still go out and buy one? I did!!

My first Review! The 3.9mm StarSplitter.
The accessories for astronomy just keep getting better and better. First my ED 80mm, then my Burgess binoviewer and now here is another example.

TeleVue Panoramic Mount
Despite the fact that "aperture wins", an astonishing number of amateur astronomers have turned to the 80mm refractor. These small scopes seem to deliver the perfect mixture of portability and performance. How will you mount yours?
The Siebert 36mm, a most unusual eyepiece.
The first impressions when I received my 36mm Observatory series eyepiece was... It looks different from what I'm used to but that is not necessarily bad... It feels lighter then I thought it would and that is actually good... The eye lens is Huge, this may also be good ... But I take it out of the boltcase and there is an metallic odor coming from the eyepiece... I hope it wears off... and it did.
