ZWO Seestar S30 Pro Reviews

Great for Newbies and More Experienced

It was easy to go from opening the box to shooting photos in a very short time. This takes some decent photos from my suburban backyard that are impressive to my friends. Just don't expect your first photos to be jaw dropping. You need to take time to experiment and learn the instrument, and then the images will be even better. This is good for new hobbyists, even older children, because they can quickly and easily get some shots of the awesome universe (wonderful for STEM). This is also good for more serious amateurs because you can get the individual photos and stack them and do post processing outside the unit. The app is also easy to use and very helpful in getting up and running. I will be trying EQ mode for the first time tonight.

Awesome Telescope

Asked by: Rick
The ZWO Seestar S30 Pro All-in-One Smart Telescope is better for wide field of view such as the Milky Way or landscapes. The Seestar S50 is better for smaller objects such as the moon or sun or zooming in on smaller deep sky objects.
