The height of the Quickfinder can be an issue, as you tend to move your head around more to find the bullseye rings, but it is the best thing to put on an Astroscan! If you know the classic little red scope, they have a big round bottom, and the Quickfinder sticks up past that so you can look along the stubby tube from the back to find your objects.

I currently use a Quickfinder and don't mind it at all, but both them and the Telrads are worth it. It took a few years for me to come around to liking them and now I don't know how I got by without them, I must have had much better eyes or much more patience when I was younger!
