I got the following shortlist from astroshop for Newton with a tripod.
Bresser Telescópio N 130/650 EQ3 Spica
Orion Telescópio N 114/450 EQ-1 Starblast II AstroTrack
Orion Telescópio N130/650 SpaceProbe EQ-2
Skywatcher Telescópio N 130/650 Explorer-130PS AZ-EQ Avant
May I please get some support in choosing? I believe the 4 are parabolic and not spherical. Is this so important, meaning I am taking the right approach in bringing down the choices...?
All the telescopes are between 250€ and 300€.
I manly want to observe the moon and planets, would love to see those rings...
Of course that afterwards I may get excited by far reach, nebulosas, etc.
Thanks in advanced!!
Have you ever looked into the night sky with some good binoculars?

Re: Beginner with 4 choices, pls help
Hey nFA - thanks for the explanation on exit pupil. Not sure I've ever seen the math involved. In doing it for my own eyepieces I see that the lens I use most often for magnification and sharp image on Saturn and Jupiter is my 9mm which is really close to the 2mm exit pupil. I can, occasionally use higher powers, but it does have to be an exceptional sky condition. I'm really glad (and lucky) I sunk the most money into the 9mm lens. <whew>!
I dunno, I guess I'm with SkyHiker on the use of laser collimators. I also bought the Howie Glatter TuBlug which I have found to give it that last little tweak. I have a Cheshire but never really liked it. OTOH I also prefer to set up in daylight, and lasers work great for that. And then again 95% of my telesope use is forDSOs . Planets are mostly for outreach events, and people are very happy just to see the ring and great spot even if only at 110X.

Re: Beginner with 4 choices, pls help
Hi mmrrmm,
If extreme portability is not your priority, I would recommend a Dobsonian. Yes, you need aDob , please read on.
SkyHiker is right about theEQ mount, notFritz is right about the Bird-Jones design. When I started this hobby, I bought a Bird-Jones scope on an EQ mount, so I perfectly agree with their reasoning. EQ mounts are meant for photography, and, let's admit it: you will not do photography with these scopes. You want to have great views. A cheap EQ mount without tracking is a ticket for a lot of frustration. What you want to max out is aperture and as a rule of thumb, the larger the f-ratio (in this price range) the better views the scope will give (the brightness of the image will not change!).
If you want to stay within a 300 EUR budget and want a lot of value for it, I can recommend this Orion XT6:
https://eu.telescope.com/Telescopes/Dob ... goryId=533
Or thisGSO one is an even better buy, because this has a higher-quality focuser:
https://www.teleskop-express.de/shop/pr ... uszug.html
Both aref/ 8 parabolic Newtonians, which will give you very nice sharp images of the Moon and the planets. Plus they have a large aperture of 150mm, which will already enable you to enjoy the views of brighter clusters, nebulae and galaxies. With a set of Super Plossl eyepieces, you will have magnificent views!

Re: Beginner with 4 choices, pls help
I agree with you up to the ie
I sketch and do not want a rotating image, while doing planetary observation/ measurements/ timings I do not want a rotating image, accurately measuring double stars I do not want a rotating image.
For 99% of what I do visually I do not want a rotating image.
I will state that even in manual use I prefer a equatorial to a az/alt mount.

These are good recommendations. Whether or not you want a Dob depends on how much you value the convenience of automatic tracking. I have had excellent results manual tracking the Moon and planets with my Dob Z12. I never found manual tracking a problem doing higher power observations of shadow transits of Jupiter moons, for instance. It takes a excellent balance and a light touch with the hand, in other words practice.
You need to decide based on your own fine muscle skills whether you need an EQ mount or a Dob.

Re: Beginner with 4 choices, pls help
The difference is then the mount itself and how each type is operated, but everything we discussed so far is still the same right?
For example the one “we” had selected here and this one:
Orion Telescópio Dobson N 150/750 StarBlast 6DOB
Would give me the same views?

Re: Beginner with 4 choices, pls help
The 150mm is slightly bigger and will gather more light.
Using a newtonian on anEQ or using it with a dobsonian mount is personal preference.
There is no real advantage for visual observation to have one over the other.

Ok that is clear now.
TheEQ mount is used while standing and the DOB would be sitting on a chair?
This reads a bit silly, but from the available pics I cannot really understand how to use which.

Re: Beginner with 4 choices, pls help
No not really, the EQ can be used with a chair as well.
You can raise theEQ higher if you want to stand though.
TheEQ has extendable legs so can be sized to fit how you want to view, a dobsonian sits on the ground and if you need to raise it up you will have to put blocks under the base plate.
The base plate needs to be reasonably level to operate properly, the legs of aneq mount can be adjusted to level it.

This seems like a real bargain: 200mm
