Carlos ,I notice it has a IMX224 sensor, so I guess the eyepiece is a small screen. Is that how it works? cheers Paul

That is a load of Advertising nonsense!
100 times more powerful??? Than what? Which Telescope is it 100 times more powerful than? A child's One Inch toy refractor with a plastic primary lens? Or a 20 inch f/4 Reflector?
The setup may be very good but I think they have taken a big liberty with the advertising hype. I wish my 224 cameras and my 120mm and 150mm scopes were 100 times more powerful!
The eVscope is 120mm at approx f/3.75 and uses a 224 camera.

One of the guys on sgl was a tester,, has a non disclosure in place,, which I thought was a bit ott. Not been a fan.. As Ken says a fair bit of hype. The seti link was a nice touch to try and sell it,, Bit flash in pan for me, no longevity in my honest opinion.. But it will be the bees knees for others

Is that how it works? cheers Paul I don't know how this telescope works but it seems that the eyepiece is a screen where the image of the object is projected. The IMX224 is a chip that has given and gives very good result and with a high sensitivity. The issue in my opinion is that the tendency to popularize astronomical observations and that the current complex operations are not necessary to be able to see a celestial object. The software is being the main protagonist of all these devices.
