[QUOTE="joseph, post: 741680, member: 19151"] Celestron is known for its telescopes and I have an 8" Schmidt-Cassegrain. If you can take a look at this one. It comes with a zoom eye piece, but I have found that single power eye pieces have less lenses and are much sharper and clearer. So you need to figure out what power you need and get a single. Also I used to compete in HIGH POWER with my Bushmaster AR-15 DCM and almost everyone use a 27 power eye piece to read the mirage which seemed to be the perfect power. "OOPS" I think I may be wrong about the power it might be 17 power to read the mirage. (sorry I would double check this I'm almost 70 and when you get up there you tend to forget stuff.) I also have a 88mm ED Kowa spotting scope which costs twice as much as the Celestron, but I think the 100 ED Celestron is better.
