Let's Start

Shortlist

The main considerations when selecting a telescope are the aperture level and focal length. A larger aperture enables one to see far objects with less light. However, the bigger the aperture, the bigger the telescope, which limits its portability. The focal length impacts the viewing distance. Another important consideration is the type of telescope (reflector, refractor, or catadioptric), which determines whether it is compatible for close and bright objects (as the moon) or for long-distance stars.

Reflector telescopes are cheaper entry-level choices for deep sky objects (with low light). They are more portable than refractors and the only type of telescope that does not show a mirror image (helps in sky navigation). Reflectors require more maintenance (cleaning away dust and aligning mirrors).

A double fork computer-guided telescope mount is used by most catadioptric telescopes and other shorter optical tubes, especially for astrophotography. The setup time can be considerable.
