Celestron vs. Meade SCT's... your opinions?Posted By Ed Ashton |
I don't own a SCT, so perhaps I'm not fit to comment on this topic, but the impression I get from all of the scope review and user web sites is that both Meade and Celestron produce optically excellent telescopes, but Meade's quality control is inferior...meaning buying a Meade is something of a crap shoot. Since I'm not a gambling man, I'd go with the Celestron. Their 9-1/4" instrument consistently gets raves everywhere you look, apparently due to it's unique optical design, and if I were in the market for a SCT, that's what I would buy.
