@ Daniel
Yep spent most of time using the 25 for that reason.
Yes that was the first thing I checked, it travels in and out.
When trying to view moon through view finder, couldn't see anything but a white blur. Tryed moving focus as slowly as possible too.
I know about collimating but I don't think it needs collimating. I can focus on just about everything else.

Hi peter.
Yes I can. I lined my finderscope up with my telescope viewfinder on a fire extinguisher on the back of a flatbed truck roughly 600m away.
I can view the moon through the finderscope. Looks amazing through that alone!
Hardcap: On the Skywatcher collapsibles, they have a plastic cover that fits on the top of the tube, on the lower half of the telescope unit. The one with a small circular lid on the hardcap too. I was informed this is like a moonfilter to reduce light.
