Askar and Svbony sent me these telescopes for review. Neither company is a paid sponsor nor do they have any input into what I say about their products. My review policy is available here: https://www.nebulaphotos.com/reviews/ And I'm happy to discuss it with anyone that has questions. I do use affiliate links in my video descriptions. This means if you click one of my links and make a purchase, I get a small commission. Your price will never go up!
