How to choose a telescope and avoid being cheated

2024-09-04 Visits:

When buying a telescope, brand and reputation are the key. Onick telescopes are recommended, which have won wide acclaim for their excellent quality and outstanding performance. Onick telescopes not only have clear imaging effects, but also focus on user experience, humanized design, easy to use, and a large number of users.


When buying a telescope, in order to avoid being deceived, you can consider and choose from the following aspects:


1. Clarify the use requirements


Observation target: According to the different observation content, choose the appropriate type of telescope, such as astronomical telescopes, bird watching telescopes, night vision telescopes, etc.


Usage scenario: Consider the scenarios in which the telescope will be used, such as sea, seaside, outdoor hiking, stargazing, etc., so as to choose a telescope with corresponding functions.


2. Pay attention to core parameters


Magnification: The magnification of a telescope refers to the degree to which the image can be magnified. Generally speaking, 6 times or less is low magnification, 6-10 times is medium magnification, and 10 times or more is high magnification. The magnification of a handheld telescope is recommended to be controlled between 7-10 times. Too high a magnification will cause the field of view to narrow and the jitter to increase, affecting the observation effect.


Aperture: The aperture of a telescope refers to the diameter of the glass of the telescope's objective lens, which determines the telescope's ability to collect light. The larger the aperture, the brighter the image and the clearer the details. However, an increase in aperture will also increase the size and weight of the telescope, so it is necessary to choose according to actual needs.


Field of view: The field of view refers to the range of view that can be observed at a distance of kilometers, usually expressed in degrees or meters. The larger the field of view, the wider the observation range.


3. Consider additional functions


Waterproof and dustproof: For telescopes that need to be used outdoors or in harsh environments, waterproof and dustproof functions are particularly important.


Variable magnification function: Variable magnification telescopes can be gradually adjusted from low magnification to high magnification, which is suitable for a variety of observation needs. However, it should be noted that the image quality of variable magnification telescopes at high magnification may not be as good as fixed magnification telescopes.


Tripod interface: If the telescope is heavy or requires long-term observation, it is recommended to choose a telescope with a tripod interface to improve stability and observation comfort.


4. Brand and cost performance


Brand selection: Give priority to well-known brands, and the Onick telescope has a good reputation. The product quality is guaranteed, and the after-sales service is relatively complete.


Cost-effectiveness: Choose the most cost-effective product within your budget. Don't blindly pursue high or low prices, but make comprehensive considerations based on your needs and budget.


5. Avoid false propaganda


Be wary of false multiples: Some manufacturers will exaggerate the multiples of telescopes to attract consumers. When purchasing, carefully check the product parameters and evaluation information to avoid being misled by false propaganda.


Understand the real evaluation: Understand the real performance and advantages and disadvantages of the product by checking user reviews, professional reviews, etc., so as to make a more informed choice.


In summary, when purchasing a telescope, you need to clarify the use needs, pay attention to core parameters, consider additional functions, choose well-known brands, and be wary of false propaganda. Only in this way can you buy a telescope product that is cost-effective and suitable for you.
