Intes Micro Alter M500 vs Orion ED80: Review At Astromart

INTES MICRO ALTER M500 vs. ORION ED80.jpg

Anjal Sharma writing over at Astromart posts his "comparative analysis" on the features and performace of the Intes Micro Alter M500 Orion ED80 telescopes. 'Through a set of rather fortunate circumstances, I came into possession of examples of optically fine specimens of these two scopes. Having had a chance to look at, through and photograph the heavens using these two scopes, I was able to compare these scopes and draw some conclusions, which appeared to be worthy of sharing with the amateur astronomy community.

There is no other reason for comparing these two scopes, except that I owned both of these. This is a subjective, purely non-scientific review and in large part reflects my own biases. Since I had only one mount, the technique employed was that Id mount a scope, observe an object, dismount that scope, replace with the other scope and compare my observations before moving on to the next object. I just observed and took rudimentary notes. A final point to note is that in many cases planetary and deepsky imaging comparison sessions were not done on the same night.'
