If you’re a computer enthusiast, you must be familiar with the benchmark score obtained from 3dMarks, PC Mark, Everest, PCMark, Prime 95 and so on. Is there anything similar to represent the performance of telescope? Well, there’s is and someone did it in the form of scores too.
Credits to Mr.Yoshida Hiroshi, he has done a review on 75 telescopes. He reviewed them visually and scored them. The photographic performance of the telescope is not taken into account. I would say this is just a reference for you but not solely the factor to consider a telescope.
Before buying a telescope, I suggest you read through the reviews posted at forums like cloudynights.com and most importantly, join a stargazing session with someone who already owned a telescope. You will know better what to expect.
