Hi guys,
I want to buy my boy a telescope. He's 4 years old. I have noticed some plasticy basic kids telescopes in toy shops, but I wanted to try to get him a fairly decent one but for as little as possible. If I can use it with my canon 350d to take pictures, then even better. I notice there are 4 different types on warehouse express:
Catadioptric
Dobsonian
Reflector
Refractor
The cheapest one I can see falls under the type: Dobsonian and is £49.99.
Can someone give me a noobs guide to what to look for? Do I want a particular type?
Cheers all
