And if you’re not quite sure what type of telescope you’re looking for, don’t worry. We will tell you exactly what you need to do to find the right telescope for you.
As part of our hand-picked telescope collection, you’ll find different types of telescopes, including:
Our refractor telescopes provide sharp, high-contrast images, making them perfect for planetary and lunar observations. In terms of cost, refractor telescopes also tend to be more affordable, making them the perfect choice for beginner astronomers and hobbyists.
In most cases (depending on the model you choose), refractor telescopes also tend to be lightweight and portable. This makes them a great choice for people who are on the go or want to observe the night sky from various angles.
Due to their larger apertures, which allow for brighter and clearer views of distant galaxies, nebulae, and star clusters, reflector telescopes are perfect for deep-sky observations. In terms of price, reflector telescopes can be pricier than their refractor counterparts, which is normal considering they are more robust and suitable not just for beginners but more seasoned astronomers.
Smart telescopes are one of the latest innovations in astronomy. These types of telescopes are equipped with various advanced technologies such as built-in cameras, GPS, and software for automated tracking and image processing.
When using a smart telescope, the telescope will simplify the process of tracking, aligning, and observing celestial objects, creating the perfect environment for the best possible viewing experience.
Smart telescopes do come at a cost though. And although we have some more affordable smart options, we also have smart telescopes that cost several thousand pounds, which are perfect for those who want the best view of the night sky.
To choose the right telescope for you, we recommend that you take the following into consideration:
Not all telescopes are the same. So, before you choose one of the many telescopes we have in stock, it’s important to determine your observing goals and pick the telescope that supports them. So, decide what you plan on observing through your telescope and the features you want your telescope to have before you start exploring your options.
If you are a beginner, your first or second telescope shouldn’t be one that is difficult to use, has a steep learning curve, and requires a lot of maintenance. The whole ordeal that comes with more advanced telescopes will quickly make you feel frustrated, which will ruin your viewing experience.
On the flip side, if you are a seasoned astronomer or hobbyist, you absolutely should go for a more advanced telescope. Once you know how to use it, your viewing experience of the night sky will be far better than if you opted for a simpler and more beginner-friendly telescope.
When it comes to telescopes, you’ll find options at both ends of the pricing scale. So, whether you have a few hundred pounds to spare or are ready to invest a few thousand pounds into a world-class telescope, at Vega Vision, we have a telescope for every budget.
So, think about your budget and decide on a number that you’d be happy to spend. Having a number in mind will help you narrow down your options, which will make picking a telescope much easier.
When it comes to telescopes, you’ll find options that are compact and lightweight, making them a great choice for people who need to transport their telescope frequently. On the flip side, there are telescopes that are large and heavy - making them more suitable for permanent setups. So, before you decide to buy a telescope, think about where and how you plan on using your telescope over the coming years.
