Sky-Watcher Dobsonian 8"

Most aperture for the money. Manual, simple, powerful. Under $500.

The Sky-Watcher Dobsonian 8" offers the most aperture for the least money, outshining every scope under $500 with its 8-inch parabolic mirror. Priced at $450, it costs 70% less than the #1 Celestron NexStar 8SE while collecting 2.8 times more light than the #3 Orion StarBlast 6. The simple rocker-box mount provides smooth manual push-to navigation with no motors or electronics, letting you resolve globular clusters into individual stars and spot Saturn's Cassini Division with ease. For raw optical performance per dollar, it's unbeatable.
