That new telescope is really good, delivering sharp stars and a very low level of chromatic aberrations. Many thanks to Bonnie for the excellent advise and Service

SO happy with this scope... compact and great quality throughout !. Highly recommended for a quick set up on an alt az mount !

This is a fantastic little scope especially for the price. I got it because I wanted a short focal length scope to capture wider field images, but for the price (less than 600€) I was not expecting the optical quality I got: the stars are round all across the APSC field. The stars look beautiful. A little aberration can be visible if you dramatically zoom in or abuse the saturation of the images but nothing that jumps to the eye. Honestly, optically, I feel like I got more than what I paid for. The only complaint I have is the way the EAF has to be mounted. I am not a big fan of belt actioned focusing as there is always the possibility of slippage and the EAF fits a bit too tightly under the scope - but this is a question of patience, not performance. 5 stars.

I've recently had the opportunity to test the new SVBONY SV530 80mm f/6 refractor, and my first impressions are very positive! For my first deep-sky imaging session, I chose the Andromeda Galaxy (M31), capturing approximately two hours of data with a ZWO ASI2600MC Duo camera. I've attached my final image, processed in PixInsight. One of the things that impressed me most was the excellent control of chromatic aberration. Colour fringing is practically absent in my initial tests, which is particularly remarkable for a compact ED refractor at f/6. The telescope is also very easy to handle and use, making it an attractive option for astrophotographers looking for a compact and convenient imaging setup. However, I did notice an unusual distortion pattern in the stars during my first imaging session. I'm currently investigating whether this could be related to the backfocus configuration, optical alignment, or possibly something specific to my review sample. At this stage, I don't want to draw any premature conclusions. Despite this issue, I'm genuinely impressed by the SV530's overall potential. My first processed image of M31 demonstrates what this little telescope is capable of, even though I had to work around the unusual star shapes during processing. If I can resolve the star distortion issue, I believe the SV530 could be an excellent little astrophotography telescope, especially considering its price and ease of use. I'll continue testing it and share more detailed results on my YouTube channel, Astroterrat. Clear skies! Carlos Uriarte | Astroterrat https://www.youtube.com/@Astroterrat

Recently bought this telescope as my other telescope was becoming cumbersome to mount onto my tripod. My other scope was a 19lb (nothing added to it) 7" 180mm Mak-Cass. No issues with it optically; just becoming a chore mounting it. Was looking for a much lighter grab and go. So far, this has fit that bill quite well with BEAUTIFUL optics as well😊 I have viewed the moon both in daylight and at night. Simply breath taking for an 80mm ED scope. And needless to say a joy in mounting it to my Omegon Twinmaster mount/tripod. No vibration when shifting over to higher power observation. Ease of transportation to the field is wonderful.

all i have to say is that i am in love with this small Petzval refractor. Paired with my APS-C cropped astronomical camera, AAF from Touptek and an the Svbony OAG i am more than sattisifed with the results- espacially looking at the price as well. Stars are looking good all over the place as well.

Bonnie & Clyde had a baby… Tammy, the little Sv353 APO. Paired with a ToupTek AE676C for a little over 4 degrees of sky coverage. Enough to nicely frame NGC7000 & NGC5050, pictured below. 10x120s SV535 SV220 7nm filter AE676C - 200 gain, 1155 offset This little scope performed magic in just 20 minutes. I’m looking forward to getting a few hours done with it.

Une bonne lunette pour du ciel profond. Le diamètre et la focale offrent suffisamment de luminosité. La marque n'a rien à envier à d'autres marques bien plus chères. Permet a d'aborder l'astrophotographie avec un budget resonable et du matériel de qualité. La photo jointe n'utilise que du matériel Svbony: lunette SV503,lunette guide SV106, caméra guide SV705C, caméra de capture SV605CC refroidie à -10°,filtre HA/OIII 3nm SV220. Capture avec N. I. N. A., traitement avec Siril+Affinity.

Finally finished my 'Grab n Go' achromat upgrade that now isn't quite as 'grab n go' as I'd expected but still pretty cherry for break down and set up and tossing into the car for a short-notice visual session. Almost 100% sVbony save for the diagonal which I took from my Evo6 (after I replaced that with sVbony dialectric in my C6 kit). In short, SV48P 102 achro, Sv225 mount, tripod and pier extension (it was quite short without it). Added the handle a bit later. Pros: sV48P really well constructed and purchased for <$300 CAD on boxing day. I highly recommend adding the handle - way easier for set up/tear down LOVE the 2-speed focuser, Love the construction/materials and the views are great. sV225 is a really solid mount...really impressed - purchased after seeing another guy use it with a 80mm Tak and figured if he can afford the OTA and deliberately chose the 225 to pair it with then it must be good Overall I spent about $700 CAD on the whole thing. Great deal for a proper big-boy achro/visual set up
