It's only $460, so I thought it was small. However, the video shows that both the scope and base holder (what's the name?) are huge—they are 25 lb and 21 lbs! I had never used a telescope before (maybe peek a view or two). So, Dawg, would you be kind to share your experience with Telescope? First, what can you do with this ES Dobsonian? Other than viewing the night sky targets, can you put a camera on and take images? How do you find a target? Does it have tracking/guiding functions? How do you work with the base holder? Do you just place it on the ground? Eager to know.</p></blockquote><p></p>
