Short tube refractor for 9 year old
Dear members,
The c925 evo is a fantastic scope, but a bit big and complicated for my 9 year old son, so he simply looks down the eye piece once dad has setup and pointed. I'd like him to learn and get involved more (he would to) as he is a space nut watching and reading everything in Nat Geo.
I was thinking of buying a short tube refractor for him. A good all round scope for planetary and deep sky. One that we could take camping, and one that may potentially double up as a reasonable imaging OTA and or guide scope. He is a small 9, and I want him to be able to do everything himself in gems of weight etc.
Your advice would be great.
Cheers
