Telescopes Televue 101is out of the box accessories?

[discoverthetruth]

Does anyone here own a televue 101is scope?

Considering purchasing one but am not sure even after searching the web if it comes with neccesary equipment for visual observing right out of the box or do you need to purchase more?

I know you need to buy mounting hardware and a mount
What are thoughts regarding mounts? Thinking about EQ6 mount.

Thanks

It's a bare OTA. Not even a finder. This is typical at this level, since people who buy high-end scopes (I own a Takahashi myself) have lots of accessories already, and have a good idea what ones they want to use.

Check TeleVue's web page for what it comes with, and the acessories you can get with it. They have documents with recommended accessory lineups for various applications.

This is not a beginner's telescope. With all due respect, you should not have to ask this question.
