5X24 Finder Scope
Since a telescope has a narrow field of view by design, it can be challenging to locate a star or planet. For this reason the telescope is fitted with a low-power, wide-field miniature telescope called a finder scope.
3X Barlow Lens
The 3x Barlow lens can triple the magnification factor provided by the telescope barlow is placed between the eyepiece and the diagonal prism.
Which Magnification?-Select the Right Eyepiece
Magnifaction=Focal Length/Eyepiece
A lower magnification should be used for the observation of the stars. This provides a wider field of view and simplifies aiming the telescope at the desired object.
The maximum magnification should be used only for particularly clear objects such as the moon, which is relatively close to the Earth and very bright, permitting good resolution of details at high magnification.
Always start viewing with your 20mm eyepiece. This is your low power eyepiece and its wide viewing field will make it easier to locate objects. Once you have located an object and the view is clear you may wish to change to the high power eyepiece.
* WARNING!
NEVER aim your telescope at the sun or even close to the sun!
