This is a beginner Telescope, which was what I needed two years ago when i got it. It is best for planetary observation. Don't expect to do astrophotography, mainly due to the wobbly motorized mount. Also you would probably need a field flattener for better pictures. I recommend getting a .67x reducer, and a variable moon filter. Also, get a better optical piece.

The f6.3 reducer is about $170 and is a nice to have. It takes you down a f-stop.
I also have the celestron variable eye piece that you can zoom with 8mm to 24mm. It's nice to be able zoom in on things. That's $70 on Amazon.
Also know that the Telescope is battery powered. It has a barrel jack for powering it, but does not come with a cord. Buy a power cord for it, like $15. I plug it into a jackery to power it all night
