Mom wants me to buy a telescope for my dad so he can watch the ships go past the family home, anyway this SAcamera site has a pretty good deal on one, but ive never heard of this website before. are they legit? advice would be appreciated!

They are a proper store. Bought from them before and been to their showroom in Century City - so 100% legit.

Most the guys in the photogprahy section do ....

Yip, they are legit. If you want telescope stuff, have a look at shop.technopro.co.za. I've bought from them before. You might get it cheaper there and they specialise in telescopes.

Ja I've bought laptops from them before - back when their physical store was in Kenilworth. A few years ago but they were always friendly, helpful and very well priced.

 

[mercurial]

Yeah, I remember the Kenilworth store. Bought some of my gear there

 

[ToxicBunny]

Yup, just to reiterate, they're good..

Bought a few things fro them before.

They are awesome, offices now at Canal Walk office park

My friends brother is one of the owners. 100% legit. They started small and made it big, yet they still manage to offer quality service. Good people to work with.

I've also bought from them but be careful not to order the wrong item because they don't like returns. I'm now stuck with a R600 camera battery. I'll never buy from them again!!!!

Off topic - what can be seen through a telescope?

It all depends on what you're pointing it at.

The reason I ask is that a friend says you see dots. Only dots. Stars look like ... dots

You can see planets, nebula etc. Stars are too far away, so you see them as dots.

Are you saying that nebulae are not far away?

They're not TOO far away

They're not TOO far away

The closest nebula is 700 light years away... They are humongous though. So yeah, not too far away to see through a normal telescope (I assume).
