It did fine. Couldn't see much, tough, because of the moon. I couldn't even see Chertan (of Leo) with naked eye.
I had some targets in mind: Beehive (M44), Pacman (M67), Pinwheel (M101), Whirlpool (M51), Andromeda (M31) and moon.
During the first cool-off, I scanned around half way between Regulus and Pollux, and after a while, a patch of tiny diamonds on a light blue velvet (due to the moon) appeared. The patch seemed to fit quite well in the
Then back to löyly.
During the second and third cool-off periods, I scanned somewhat widely between Regulus and Procyon, but didn't find the M67.
It was clear that I had no hope of seeing the galaxies due to the moon that hung pretty close to the center of UMa and Leo, so I had to drop them and go with the moon.
During the next cool-off periods I looked at the moon. The moon was bright. The image looked quite sharp, but painfully bright. I thought that a grey filter ND06 (25%) would be good for a small scope, like this, but no. Then I changed to ND09 (13%), but that didn't help much either. I need to get much darker filter for the moon.
I was impressed enough, however, to retire my 10 x 50 binoculars from astronomy. From now on, I'll use the binoculars only for terrestrial. They suck big time compared to the new scope.
Also, I think this kind of scope is very good for a beginners. Also, the AZ-3 was quite good. I didn't notice excess vibrations and such. The vibrations from touching the scope died very quickly.
