WTS: Celestron C70 Mini Mak
Scope is practically brand new (99.5%). Delivered to me on 3 Dec 15 from overseas. Used it twice and found this hobby not for me. There is also a separate 20mm Plossl eyepiece that was delivered to me on 7 Dec 15 as well. Both items cost above $200. Will sell at $180. Original box with tripod all in...

Re: Newbie with Celestron C70 spotting scope
Thanks, I am actually okay in purchasing from any retailer, not necessarily China.

Re: Newbie with Celestron C70 spotting scope
Thanks guys, you fellas are experts.. very cheem for me but I sort of gotten a rough idea.
Anyway, I intend to use the scope at nature reserves, not looking up to the skies.
On a final note, what I want is better clearer views and better AFOV. Would then a 20mm Plossl eyepiece be good in this case?

Re: Newbie with Celestron C70 spotting scope
Hi Hardwarezone, I checked the Aliexpress website and saw that there are many other eyepieces.
Your recommendation is for a 23mm eyepiece. Would it be practical then for me to get a 10mm one so that there is higher magnification?

Re: Newbie with Celestron C70 spotting scope
Thanks guys for the insight.
I tried it out last night and the FOV is not that good. Moreover, at high magnification, it blurs.
What then would be a good recommendation for an eyepiece?

Newbie with Celestron C70 spotting scope
Hi people,
Just got myself the C70 for mainly for terrestrial use. Understand it can also be used for astronomy. Read from forums that replacing the stock eyepiece can improve viewing dramatically. Not sure if upgrading the eyepiece is worth it. Hope someone can give me some insight in this.
