Meade ETX90EC Telescope w/Electronic Controller Reviews
199 of 203 people found the following review helpful Beyond my wildest expectations!, November 27, 1999 By Daniel W. Schuffert (Chicago, IL USA) - See all my reviews This review is from: Meade ETX90EC Telescope w/Electronic Controller (Electronics) I am truly an amateur astronomer. My childhood was peppered with dime-store telescopes that showed me a new blurry world. When I got the EXT-90EC I expected little more than a brighter blur. To my surprise and delight I was wrong. Out of the box, in bad lighting conditions, surrounded by trees, I saw some of the most breath-taking images of the moon. In fact, I spent the next six hours observing the moon. I saw craters in detail. I even saw some craters within craters. I did venture to a bright star I saw in the sky. It turned out to be Jupiter. It was a highly recognizable Jupiter. Not another dot in the sky. I could see three of Jupiter's moons in orbit. I couldn't even make out Jupiter's moons with the naked eye.I tried the telescope during the day for terrestrial viewing. Once again I was pleasantly surprised! The local river area came alive with wildlife. The photographic possibilities are endless!
I purchased the #883 Deluxe field tripod, #932 45... Read more
150 of 153 people found the following review helpful A good **portable** scope: Read This, August 27, 2002 By This review is from: Meade ETX90EC Telescope w/Electronic Controller (Electronics) I am the president of a large (300 members) astronomy club in Columbus, Ohio and have looked through thousands of telescopes in my life- including, perhaps, 20 Meade ETX-90s. I find the views of the planets and the moon through the ETX-90 to be consistently good- though not overwhelming. Due to the limited light grasp of this scope, high power views of deep-sky objects (galaxies, star clusters, nebulae) are relatively anemic and uninspiring. However, the scope gives very nice "rich field" (low power) views of the Milky Way and brighter comets.To explain: More than any other factor, it is the aperture of a telescope that matters. In general, aperture dictates portability, cost, resolution (sharpness) and, most importantly, light gathering ability. A telescope is like a bucket for gathering light; the larger the bucket, the more light it gathers. With its 3 and a half inches (90 millimeters) of aperture, the ETX-90 is not a very large bucket.

95 of 95 people found the following review helpful easy to use and expandable, June 14, 2000 This review is from: Meade ETX90EC Telescope w/Electronic Controller (Electronics) The ETX-90EC was a breeze to set up. Within 20 minutes I was viewing the moon in my backyard. The optics are fantastic for the price and the standard eyepiece is great for terrestrial peeking as well as stargazing.The motor works well and the variable speeds are very effective, but mine is a bit noisy. It tends to growl as it idles and I have not been able to determine if this is normal or not. Other downsides are the vertically exposed eyepiece (I ended up using a plastic cylinder as a protective cap) and the six screws on the spotting scope, which make centering very difficult.
You definitely need the tripod because the standard base is unstable unless you are placed on solid rock, so prepare to add another $200 to the price. And the erecting prism is a must for terrestrial viewing.
All in all this is a great scope. The few limitations are far outweighed by the line of eyepieces and accessories available for the ETX-90EC such as Autostar and the 35mm camera... Read more
