Replace the finderscope on your telescope with something bigger?
The GSO 8X50 achromatic finderscope is a good choice for any telescope, both astronomical and terrestrial. It can also be used as a replacement of the standard, smaller finderscope supplied with most telescope. It features a diecast mounting bracket with spring-loaded screws for easy alignment. It has long eye relief and an approximate 5.8° field of view. Because of its large aperture, the 8X50 finderscope often reveals brighter deep sky objects. The difference is easily noticable, resulting in faster location of objects and more comfortable viewing. Grasp 170% more light then a 6x30 Finder. To focus the finderscope simply unscrew the lock-ring, rotate the objective, then re-close the lock-ring.
