Buyer's Guide
Choosing your first setup
Not sure where to start? Our guide walks through telescopes, mounts, and cameras. Read about what matters, what doesn't, and how to build a rig that grows with you.
Voluntary
Support development
AstroEquip is free and vendor-neutral. If the Gear Finder or Telescope Simulator has been useful, you can support continued development with a one-off tip on Ko-fi.
Donations help cover hosting, catalog research, and the time it takes to keep the matching engine honest.
Donations are voluntary, processed by Ko-fi, and confer no special status, rights, or product favouritism. See our editorial-independence policy.
