Celestron Sky Watcher Sky-Watcher EvoStar 120 APO Doublet Refractor – Compact and Portable Optical Tube for Affordable Astrophotography and Visual Astronomy

Q: can you recommend a lower end tripod?

Factually, I would not recommend a lower-end tripod. This is a powerful enough telescope that having a cut-rate tripod will negate the money you spend on the scope. If you are on a tight budget get a good moderate, entry-level tripod, like the Orion Sirius EQ-G, which I note is available through Amazon. You can obviously get a much less expensive mount, but the more powerful a telescope, the more sensitive it is to vibration and instability in the mount. I would go with the Atlas, since overkill in the mount is a good idea, but the Sirius can handle that scope unless you put some heavy cameras and a reducer on it like I did. If shelling out another $1,200 is too much for you, then get a less expensive telescope, in the 80mm range, and put it on the $1,200 mount. A good rule is that your mount should be better than your scope, and cost more. If not, then you are wasting your money on the scope and will be unhappy with the result.

Q: Is this the same as the evostar 120ed on the sky-watcher website?

Yes, the ProED has been rebranded to Evostar. They are the same scope.

Q: check your price, everyone else is $1000 under yours, I think it is missed priced?

The price is $1,549 from Sky-Watcher, but it is not $2,013.70 any other place on the planet.

Q: what phone camera adapter is available for this refractor? If possible need model # for the adaptor? Thanks!

All of the phone adapters I've seen attach to the eyepiece not the scope so they can be used with any scope.
