ZWO Seestar S30 Smart Telescope

Ré, P. (2023). ZWO Seestar S50 smart telescope. PDF

PROS

  1. Light weight and easy to use
  2. Quick setup
  3. Not expensive for a smart scope
  4. Excellent app

CONS

  1. Although it produces nice images (Sun, Moon and Deep sky) it does not compete with other astrophotographic rigs (e.g. equatorial mounts)
  2. The apochromatic objective is not colour free
  3. The dual band filter produces noticeable halos on bright stars
  4. Not suitable to image the planets (short focal length and short focal ratio)
