Re: Telescope advice...

refractors have a crisper view, better for planetary gazing then its reflector counterpart. 60ish mm aperture is the bare standard, go up to 100mm and you're laughing!

telescopes advertise their magnification because people seem to think this is most important, but of course optical use of high magnification is not possible
