is this an actual photograph taken with a telescope?

I don't really know, but it looks like it. It doesn't look like it was painted at all. I hope this helps. :)

no, it is a real time image--really what it is is a macro digital camera with a fixed focus

NO just the telescope, i have bought another table equatorial mount telescope

Unlikely with much success. Astrophotography requires a motorized mount for long exposures. I've held my cell phone to my SkyScanner for rudimentary snapshots of the moon and Jupiter (with it's moons), but that was it.

Not really. This telescope is approximately 5 feet tall and weighs about 60 pounds.

Yes it is but it's not so rigid and stable. After screwed and fixed it on tripod, its imagine does fluctuate under high magnification for every minor adjustment. Still figure out the way to solve it.

It is not motorized. There are little discs on the stand that recognize when the telescope is being moved.

Hello, good camera if you have a large telescope. on small optics you have a lot of noise from the CMOS. H.S.

Absolutely not. The focus is not crystal clear and the image is not bright enough for stars. Also, the zoom feature requires refocusing throughout the magnification range which is very frustration.

With out the lens on your camera the focus is all in the telescope. You need to look at what you want to take a photo of and bring it in to focus looking thru your camera but adjusting the telescope. You may slso need to manually adjust the time exposure as you also now have aperture

this is definitely NOT an astronomical instrument. Yes, you can see anything through it, but as far as adding value to seeing the stars, no. you are better off with a pair of binoculars. This is strictly a terrestrial recreational handheld glass.

no it is not, but it is extremely bright with the 55mm obj lens, worth the money in my book.

You have to focus using the telescope. From the time you mount it the camera can only adjust ISO, the rest is fully manual.

Sorry, I cannot respond. The telescope and accessories were a gift. I know nothing about the bits and pieces.

That would depend on the telescope weight. In reality you are bett6er of with a tripod or mount designed for your telescope.

Yes it is. Any telescope with a open space of 2 1/2" x 8 1/2" will work. I highly recommend.
