## Description

This small Guidingscope handles all the tasks of a "classic" Leitfernrohrs - but it is lighter and much easier to use! Previously used to long and large Leitfernrohre to find a guiding star. Eliminate the need to! The sensitivity of modern astro imagers is on your side. The Mini-Guidesope set as a viewfinder on your telescope.The 50mm Guide Scope is a complete and compact guide scope solution designed for use with nearly each autoguider and CCD camera in the market. The Guide Scope is ideal for guiding long-exposure astrophotographs with imaging telescopes up to 1500mm in focal length. Consisting of a 50mm aperture, 190mm focal length achromatic refractor guide scope, an adjustable dovetail guide scope bracket, an 1.25" aluminum parfocal ring, a dovetail mounting base, and an adapter plate, the 50mm Guide Scope makes it easy for any astro-imager to enjoy the precision of autoguiding in their images. All this pint-sized setup requires is a StarShoot AutoGuider or similar small-chip CCD autoguider and it’s ready for night, camera, action! The guide scope bracket fits into the standard dovetail finder scope base found on most telescopes. If your imaging scope doesn’t feature a dovetail base or has one already occupied by an oft-used finder, the dovetail base（not include）and attachment hardware lets you attach the 50mm Guide Scope to any optical tube. Alternatively, the included adapter plate can be used to attach the dovetail base and 50mm Guide Scope to any standard dovetail plate or side-by-side plate if preferred.

Review: Para guía en tubos mayores a 600 mm - La calidad de hechura es buena, no sirve para hacer fotografía adicional como campo amplio por lo que es muy específico para su funcion
Review: Great finder scope - This finder scope was exactly what I was looking for, it was a significant upgrade over the scope I had previously. I had to replace the custom mechanism for the telescope to a dovetail connector base to make it fit, but most accessories use that standard dovetail, so I would have needed to do so anyway. Once I've replaced the base with the dovetail one, this fit perfectly. The image through this finder is clear, it is easy to align (although, you'll have to align it as perfectly as you can on as far of an object as you can). I've used it a few times for finding planets and stars and have had no issue with viewing the night sky in terms of brightness, and finding what I wanted to focus on. I've seen a few reviews indicating it would be nice to have crosshairs to make it easier to see the centre, but on the scopes I've seen those crosshairs, they're on the side of the eyepiece, so it should be possible to add your own, it's also better to be able to choose crosshairs that are visible at night, because quite a few have crosshairs that are effectively invisible at night on the dark sky. Just to note, this is not an all-in-one, the eyepiece adapter is a standard one that fits 1.25" eyepieces, so make sure you have an eyepiece of your own. This has the upside of making the magnification of the scope modifiable as desired.
