bushnellrox's Full Review: Bushnell Northstar® 78-8850 (400 x 127mm) Tel...
Outstanding! Bushnell propels itself into more serious regions with the latest addition to it's popular Northstar series.
I had the scope set-up and ready for viewing within 10 minutes of taking it out of the box. Set-up could not be easier. I especially like the one-screw mount for the telescope body.
Aligning the Northstar: Piece of Cake!! There are three methods avaiable: Earth Align (using LAT/LONG), Star Align (at least two alignment stars) and align object (good for 'fine-tuning').
Views: Awesome!! This is a perfect 'intermediate' scope. I came to this scope from a 114" reflector, a 60mm refractor, and a pair of 12X60 Binos. This is the perfect step-up from that level.
Conclusion: If you are at 'easy' level and looking to step up to 'intermediate' GO FOR IT!! This is the one for you.
