## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can you see the moon in detail**
A: It's a great telescope for looking at the moon, enabling you to see the craters in good detail.  What really struck me was how when viewed by the naked eye the moon just appears as a big white disc in the sky, but when viewed through the scope suddenly becomes this huge floating 3D orb.

**Q: Is this a good telescope for a beginner?**
A: Yes. Very easy to use and excellent value. 👍👍👍

**Q: Can you use your mobile to take photos with this ?**
A: I bought this for my grandson at Christmas,and he has sent me some piuctures of the moon so I would imagine you can

**Q: Do you need a moon filter?**
A: Yes.they can be very handy when the moon is well into waxing.it takes alot if the glare away so you can see sharper detail.
