Have is and would not recommend it. The adapter for phone is really Al hard to adjust to get the image and then too it shakes a lot on touch so need to use timer to take a picture. The eye piece screws are shit and eventually gives up and I had to put duct tape to keep it in place. Better spend money on a little higher end one.

This one is barely able to hold a camera phone on its own. I doubt you can use a DSLR on it m.

Interestingly, I saw this article today about an approaching comet that last pasted this way 50,000 years ago. Should be visible in a few weeks. https://legalinsurrection.com/202...000-years/

Through call or chat? Do they have a policy?

I own a pair of those binos, they're collecting dust in my garage now. You'll 100% need a tripod for those, so keep that in mind. They give good enough views for the price if you are very careful with them and they never get dropped or bumped. Being that they're in a soft case, it's hard to keep the two lenses in alignment. While I'm sure this scope isn't great either, at least you can up the power with eyepieces and probably see more. I wouldn't expect good pictures of anything except the moon through this scope.

This thing is just a toy for your kids. It's like this. This is Moon. Moon has lunar crater, not sure. This is Saturn. Saturn has a ring, not sure. This is Jupiter. Jupiter has patterns, not sure. That's it. Do not expect what you see on internet. You get what you pay for.
