The images are both inverted and upside down with standard eyepieces. **Q: Can you photograph deep sky objects with this telescope?** A: This scope is excellent for taking Deep Sky objects. You may need to move the Primary UP to reach focus depending on what system you use. You will need some sort of guide system,like a smaller refractor to guide if you don't use an auto guider. but teaching you that, isn't the purpose of this answer. They are really a very nice scope. **Q: what's shipping box dimension of omni xlt 150 mewtonian reflector???** A: I think there were two huge boxes...I don't remember the size but they were big. You could not lift wrap your arms around them to lift, you need a dolly. **Q: Es posible solicitar el envio a México?** A: Si, es posible a comprar este telescopio en México. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great build quality for a beginner Newtonian *by on Reviewed in the United States January 6, 2024* This was my first telescope.The mount and tripod it shipped with are solid quality that strike the right balance between being sturdy enough and not so heavy that you won't want to pull it out for some star gazing. It's a good beginner EQ mount. Some would say this mount is a bit under sized for the weight of the scope. Out of the box, it's fine. However, if you throw some heavier eye pieces on it like a Tele Vue Nagler 22, or a Tele Vue Delos 6mm with a Powermate, then yes... things start to get a bit shaky when you're looking through the eye piece.The actual telescope is a blast! It's great quality; it looks great; it feels great! I upgraded the secondary mirror collimation screws with some thumb screws you can find at some of the big online astronomy stores. Aside from that, I have been using it stock and I've been enjoying looking at the planets and the stars.The 25mm plossl eyepiece it comes with is good to get started with.Note: if you plan to hookup a dedicated astronomy camera to this scope, you may not be able to pull in the focuser far enough to achieve focus. I found this to be the case with the ZWO ASI533MC camera. The scope can be modified with a lower profile focuser or the primary mirror can be brought forward, but out of the box, if you're planning on doing some electronically assisted astronomy, you may want to do some research before jumping in. There's a video reviewer named Ed Ting that gives this scope a great review and he managed to hookup his DSLR to it without issue. So perhaps your milage will vary depending on what you're trying to do.Overall, would I recommend this setup for a beginning Newtonian for visual astronomy? Absolutely! I love it.What would I do differently? If I knew at the time that I was going to end up buying a mount for astrophotography / EAA, I would have purchased the Celestron Omni XLT 150 telescope without the CG4 mount and I would have just started off with the mount I wanted. But that will push you into a much higher price point.These days, I use this scope on my ZWO AM5 Mount. It's much lighter than the CG4, and it handles much more weight -- but we're comparing apples to diamonds. The AM5 will cost you 6x the price of the CG4 mount (if you bought it alone). If you know that you're going to get into Astrophotography later, and you can afford it, I'd recommend you just spend the money up front to get the mount you want and by the Celestron Omni XLT 150 OTA without the bundled mount. If you do end up going this direction and you don't think you'll end up with a heavier telescope in the future, you might also look at the ZWO AM3 mount. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ My favorite telescope *by on Reviewed in the United States December 20, 2023* I had to go through about 5 telescopes to find the "perfect" one for me, including a few that I returned after purchase (I kept 3), ultimately finding that this telescope satisfies my observation objectives (viewing deep sky objects). The price was a deterrent at first so I did try a couple less expensive scopes. For comparison also purchased two 10inch Dobsonians (kept one). For me, the usability of this EQ-4 mount is the real winner for searching and tracking (over the Dobsonian), and using a range of higher quality eyepieces purchased separately I am able to view to my heart's content. Just purchased a carry bag, as this will probably be my forever go-to telescope for stargazing. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great for the Price Range *by on Reviewed in the United States February 24, 2019* Great for amateurs wanting to get into astronomy for under $1000. Started with the PowerSeeker series but I should have skipped those and started with this one. It Is a manual control mount which is great for learning the celestial sphere and getting used to how an EQ mount works. The the XLT 150 OTA compared to the 127eq PowerSeeker is significantly better; the mirror is parabolic instead of spherical and it doesn’t have the corrective Barlow. Also, this telescope can be used with 2” and 1.25” eyepieces. The 1.25” adaptor is included. The adaptor can be unscrewed and used with a T-ring for beginner astrophotography, but you will need the dual axis motor kit for most objects. Overall I would recommend this for any new casual users who want a good telescope without spending $1000s. ## Frequently Bought Together - Celestron 31057 Omni XLT 150 Reflector Telescope, Dark Blue - Celestron 14 Piece Telescope Accessory Kit - Plossl Eyepieces, Barlow Lens, Colored Filters, Moon Filter, and Sturdy Carry Case - Celestron - NexGO 2-Axis Universal Smartphone Adapter - Digiscoping Smartphone Adapter - Capture Images and Video Through Your Telescope or Spotting Scope --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sc/products/7975579-celestron-31057-omni-xlt-150-reflector-telescope-dark-blue](https://www.desertcart.sc/products/7975579-celestron-31057-omni-xlt-150-reflector-telescope-dark-blue) --- *Product available on Desertcart Seychelles* *Store origin: SC* *Last updated: 2026-09-14*
