Book Review: The NexStar User's Guide
Summary: 4 Stars
If you own a Celestron NexStar telescope and you are not "GoTo" savvy
like most of us, this book will walk you through it and then some.
I have the SLT 102, which is not covered in this book because the three SLT
models are new and did not come to market until after this book was
published. Nevertheless, it does cover the former models which operate
almost identically. I had no problem following his explanations of
operating my scope. There are many tips and illustrations on the NexStar
line of scopes to give you the confidence needed to get the most out
of your investment. There are trouble shooting guides, suggested acessories,
software reccomendations, power sources, and what you can see in the sky
with your scope. The author has a web site for the most recent information
and tips on the NexStars. You will never feel like you are alone. Mr. Swanson
will answer your questions directly or via the Yahoo NexStar newsgroup
pages. It is a good investment and resource for your telescope.
Book Review: celestron 9.25 user
Summary: 4 Stars
I recently purchased a Celestron 9.25" Nexstar telescope. The scope is great but the owner's manual that came with it leaves a lot to be desired. After just a quick scan of Swanson's book, I discovered several useful tips that I have already put to use (e.g., how to position the index marking decal that had come off; the Nexstar Resource site; and the availability of a template from Starizona for making it easier to put the scope on the tripod). Anyone thinking about buying a Celeston Nexstar scope should consider purchasing this book.Book Review: NexStar bible
Summary: 4 Stars
A terrific resource jock full of insights on the NexStar line of scopes. Some of the material not exactly applies to my scope (NextStar 8 SE), e.g., no need to align scope per book's somewhat tortuous guidance, as the manual with the scope is straightforward. Still a worthwhile purchase especially for first time scope owner and book has many useful web source references.
