Query: Bare Minimum Requirements for a Starter Scope

This scope is as very basic starter scope. Here's why:1. The objective is 80 mm, just over 3.1 inches, so it is jsut adequate to bring in the light necessary for a beginning look at the universe. It is adequate for the moon, and beginning views of the larger planets. The planets will appear as small disks. One will be able to see Saturn's rings, and Jupiter's moons, but the images will be very small. Some deep sky objects will be visible, but faints and fuzzy.2. The mount will vibrate when touched, which will cause the image in the eyepiece to "shiver", which is very frustrating to the observer.If additional funds are available, I'd opt for a larger scope with a better mount. Kids will be satisfied with this scope however.Jim "Konedog" Koenig, astronomy buff
