This made me chuckle - thought I would spread the joy. So prosaic :)

Hmm theres the bit about viewing solar flares, then in the next sentence using the moon filter so you can "enjoy the charming moon at night without burning your eyes".

Its funny to us who know what its all about, but for a beginner ?

:) I like this line as well :quote"It gives crystal clear images which are crisp and with very little chromatic aberration"certainly hope not with a newtonian :D :whistle: and "Do you want to catch the moment that the meteor falling across the sky"....:) good to see a sun warning though

Yes, the sun warning shows true concern for consumer health. I understand that a good laugh also contributes to good health, so the author of the ad has done us all a huge favour (really).

Written by the same chap who wrote the instructions for my clothes dryer.

I reckon it would be a terrific buy coz it says it even comes with the screws! Very important.


Is that a spew bucket in between the tripod legs? LOL
