Am I going to be dissapointed with my 10" Dobsonian telescope? - best 10 telescope
I bought an Orion XT10 Intelliscope, and they have only met twice. I found M31 and M42, but it was a big disappointment! I have read a little before I bought the scope and I am aware that this is not what you see through a number of fans who even remotely like the pictures you see in the publications. But what I saw, seemed to blur as two objects is very low. I was in a rural area, in a perfectly clear night. There was some moonlight. Collimation is good because I just bought a distributor Orion, and collimated met and tested. As with standard eye, not the best, but prior to exposure of several hundred dollars in a panopticon or nailer, I want to know what to expect. Can you describe, or links to pictures that represent what I expected from this telescope in good condition and see the quest for quality? In essence, GRD.

Well, when the moon, then in a dark sky, is not very good because it could be the center of the city. This is important for deep sky objects.
One should be aware that photography in general, more detail and color, with visuals. If you can not imagine enjoying this hobby, knowing full well that most probably had the wrong field.
However, I believe visual observation much more rewarding than just the picture. I saw pictures of hundreds of Saturn, how many times in my life, but when the telescope always makes me happy. M42 is always nice in a dark sky. It does not seem as clean as it is in pictures, but since the photon is just wonderful with my own eyes. M31 looks like a bright light, but still too big to see for myself.
What if you need to understand that the perception of visual astronomy requires practice. This may not be logical, but you must teach your eyes to decipher the details of the weak. If you ever go out with someoneHe has all the time, you find that you can be similar in scope to a very small object and information about what they see and can be seen in the eyes and see nothing more or less. It takes practice and time. Take time to observe things for a while. With a range can be difficult Dobson, because you must manually track objects, but you certainly have time to spend searching. Concentrate on the properties and you will notice that the time goes by you see more detail. Also, remember that the sky may affect conditions at the time of your vision.
The best thing we can do is try to find and join a local astronomy club. You'll find that if you just finished another experienced amateur, you "learn" how to begin to enjoy this hobby.
What can you say pictures of what you see ... it is not really possible. Cameras are our eyes and images of a completely different way. To make things too easy, the effect is very similar, but for the most vulnerable, is quite different. The best thing we can hope for is an overview. Sketches will show the best work, which probably do, because they leave what really see the people. Search around sketches of various objects which may help a little.
Most Fuzzies DSO are initially low. Extract after a long train your eyes to see more details and to see fainter objects. Visit help please the fans. It has helped me. You have a large bandwidth so that I am doing some efforts in the hobby, thinking certainly more benefit.
M31 in general seems to obliterate an oval, but the night of the proper management of certain persons to have a look at them in detail.
You should have seen the structure of the M42, though. Be careful with a low-power eyepiece, a 25mm, and be sure to leave your telescope to start to cool slightly. Everything depends on the telescope itself and the outside temperature. The colder it usually takes. Normally I give myself about 45 minutes, but I live in a temperate climate.
Another thing to consider, atmospheric turbulence. Sometimes there is turbulence in the upper atmosphere, even if to calm her. A good way to see how turbulent up there, the telescope at a bright star with a high power eyepiece and point to the discussion. If the fuzzy star "cook", then there is a lot of wind. It's more of a problem for the observation of planets, I believe the depths of space.
Sometimes it is useful to examine the question for a moment the eyes and fit as more and make the atmosphere a few seconds, and then geYou look good. On some nights, you will display horrible and other nights you may have seen jaws drop.
Maybe you want your telescope at a star party, where you can compare with other telescopes. You can also astronomical drawings people have done in the eyes .... warn many amateur astronomers have a good imagination though!

From time to time in the forums have a "what you see" type of posts, where people give their opinions on what they see.
Above all, patience! The observation is art!

I know nothing about telescopes.
However, I want you for your question into the text, thanks to a seemingly endless series of jokes inspired really funny!
Good luck.
They love to be
I am one of them to suck. U are not really the case for a 16 "telescope
