SVBONY SV503 102mm F7 ED Telescope Review

Описание: In this video I review the SVBONY SV503 102mm F7 ED Refractor telescope, along with the SV193 0.8x Reducer/Flattener that is available to purchase separately to use with it for astrophotography. I show you the features of the telescope, comment on the build quality and build a rig with it, taking some imagery and showing you the results.

If you want to skip any parts of the video, please use the chapters which I have included...so if you're in a rush you can jump straight to the bits you are interested in!!!

IMPORTANT UPDATE : Since making this video, SVBONY have informed me that a back-focus distance of 55mm is required to get the sharpest stars across the sensor. I have since repeated my test with 55mm of back-focus and there is now ZERO elongation of the stars in the corners of the image.

If you are planning to purchase either or both of these products, I would be very grateful if you use the affiliate links below. This won't cost you any extra, but it will help me to make more videos like this. Thank you.
