Description: | This scope looks like the one of SkyWatcher 200/1000 in CG5. The only differences is in the spider: the spider in the SkyWatcher is more tiny than the ones of the Kepler. This brand is from France but the scope is a Made in China. The optics are very good, with outstanding images of the sky and the planets when well cool down. The CG5 makes the job, but the aluminium tripod is not hard enought and has to be changed in order to upgrade the vibrations immunity.
Good scope, with a wood tripod and motor drives, you can jump in the world of the astrophotography.
