Celestron NexStar Evolution Telescope

Q: Once you align the telescope, does it automatically track with the Earth's rotation to keep an object in the field of view?

It will keep an object centered but the stars around it will appear to rotate over time. For visual work this is not a problem but for long camera exposures, the stars around it will appear to rotate (called "field rotation"). If you are going to get into astrophotography it is best to get an equatorial mount and a high quality one too. I like the Sky Watcher AZ-EQ5 but the AZ-EQ6 is even better for bigger payloads (OTA (optical tube assembly), finder, diagonal, eyepiece, guiding scope, etc.)

Q: How does the Celestron NexStar Evolution 8 compare to the Celestron NexStar 8 SE Telescope? What's different beyond Wifi? Does it have internal GPS?

Brass worm gears, clutch locks in both axis (you can manually move the telescope), internal rechargeable battery, padded illuminated eyepiece holder, multiple auxiliary ports (alludes to new products to come??), superior tripod in features and functions, comes with 2 eyepieces instead of one (this is how you change magnification). Call us for more information if you like, we love helping amateur astronomers ;-) 888-471-9991

Q: It doesn't look like a barlow lens is included. Should I get a barlow lens? Which barlow lens would you recommend?

The lenses included are fine for viewing clusters of stars, nebulae, and bright planets (including all 4 of Jupiter's Galilean moons). I recommend getting a higher quality barlow (2-4x), since higher magnification means less light, higher SNR, so to speak, so reduce the noise. I've tried buying 2.8mm medium grade lenses, but at that magnification, imperfections in lens design distort the image.
