50mm Guidescope
Shipping was quick, it was here in 3 or 4 days. Quality looks great. I've only just seen 1st light with it. I was able to accomplish pinpoint focus and autoguiding using Phd II and an ASI1200 mini cam. So far so good! Happy camper!

F050 Guidescope
I like this unit basically due to it's build and design qualities. It can be used as both a guide and finder scope if needed. The ability to add/remove provided rings to accomplish focal lengths to support these is very neat. I also like the focuser design which maintains a stable camera/eyepiece and the locking screw to keep it in place once it is focused. It is working well for me - nuf said.

Good, not great
The optics are fine, acceptable for use as a guide scope. The helical focus mechanism is smooth, and it locks down solidly, but there isn't much focus travel. I would have preferred a draw tube that would allow use of a camera or eyepiece without installing the extender ring and likely ruining the pointing. The finish is great, and the knurled texture on the focus barrel is an elegant touch.

Same great quality
Same great quality and performance I've come to expect from Stellarvue. Perfect for my guide camera, smooth operation, and not too heavy. Thanks Stellarvue.

F050G Guide Scope
Well constructed with high quality helical focuser and optics. Sharp image. A plus that it can be used visually or with camera using the supplied extensions.

High quality guide scope
This guide scope has a couple of very nice features. There is a spacer ring that allows scope to be used for guide cameras when the spacer is out, or visual, when the spacer is in place. The focus is lockable and has a numeric index for focus travel.

Compact guidescope, nice focuser
This guidescope is a nice unit. It is compact, works as both a finderscope and a guidescope. It would be better yet if the focus range was longer to allow the use of a diagonal when using it as a finder scope.
