The eyepiece is a 16x to 48x magnification. I set the eyecup up since I do not wear glasses. Felt very comfortable. I started at 16x on objects and found it easy to zoom in and out by rotating the eyepiece. As mentioned adjusting the focus was easy to do with my hand while looking through the eye piece.
The tripod mount allows rotation of the scope. Real easy to do, slight turn of the knob and the tripod ring rotates. As the ring rotates it clicks into different positions. I rotated it a full 360 degrees as the manual states. At the same time I adjusted the eye piece fairly easy by loosening the lock ring on the eye piece. Nice to be able to do this. I like to go to the gun range and shoot prone. I can see how the versatile positioning will work with the proper mount.
The tripod mount is great because it has 4 holes to mount with. This allows to mount the scope balance. My Nikon has one hole so however the scope mounts is how it mounts. The Celestron mount is much better.
After I setup the scope and practiced I disassembled and put in the carry bag that it came with. I drove out to the rifle range. I put some lead down range about 200 yards and was able to see my target crystal clear. I used 3 different rifles. .308 easily seen and clear, .223 clear and crisp, and .17 HMR no issues seeing how I did. I used standard silhouette targets, non color change.
Highly recommended.

Dislikes:
The only thing I can say is the where the focus mechanism is, but after using it for a day this is a non-factor and I can focus quickly after using after one day.
I would recommend this scope to anyone, no matter what they are willing to spend.
If you are looking for a tripod to match check out the Magnus VT-4000.
The telescope is highly portable, fits in your backpack, and can be deployed very quickly. For astronomical use, by using separate 1.25" eyepieces the 65 ED can give you a very bright image with a 40mm eyepiece (10X, 6.8 mm exit pupil), or high power with a 4mm eyepiece (96X). 96X is the maximum usable magnification in this case. As others have said, the telescope is tail heavy, so by using astronomical eyepieces the center of gravity is somewhat restored (The included eyepiece weighs 300 g). High magnification will require a good tripod. At the lower powers the telescope can be aimed easily by using the sight rotated 90° and aiming through the side.
The included eyepiece will show you the discs of the planets and the rings of Saturn. Definitely for planet detail more magnification will be needed, using additional eyepieces.
The main drivers for my selection were high image quality, quick deployment and portability. I live in Bogota, Colombia where cloud cover can change very quickly, so maximizing viewing opportunities is a must!

Zunächst hatte ich aufgrund einiger Rezensionen hier und an anderer Stelle die Befürchtung, zu dem günstigen Preis ein Gerät zu erhalten, dessen Zoomokular nicht durch andere 1,25"-Okulare tauschbar sei, weil sich der entsprechende Befestigungsring nicht bewegen ließe. Das hat sich aber nicht bestätigt; der Befestigungsring sitzt zwar ziemlich fest, aber wenn man auf das Zoomokular etwas Druck ausübt, als wolle man es tiefer ins Spektiv hineinschieben, und gleichzeitig den Befestigungsring gegen den Uhrzeigersinn dreht, löst er sich anstandslos. Außerdem bin ich zumindest vorläufig zu dem Schluss gekommen, dass mir die optische Leistung des Zoomokulars ausreicht, und habe deshalb die gleichzeitig bestellten Okulare mit Festbrennweiten zurückgegeben. Eins davon, ein Celestron X-cel LX 12 mm, hatte ich kurz anstelle des Zooms eingesetzt, um zu probieren, ob es sich einsetzten ließ und funktionierte. Das tat es, aber ich konnte auf die Schnelle keine so deutliche Verbesserung der Bildqualität wahrnehmen, dass ich deswegen bei der Vogelbeobachtung auf die Vorteile des Zoomokulars hätte verzichten wollen.
Das Wetter war bisher für längere Beobachtungen ungünstig, und für die dauerhafte Verwendung zusammen mit Smartphone oder Kamera fehlen mir noch einige Zubehörteile. Soviel kann ich aber schon jetzt sagen: Bei der Vogelbeobachtung ist das Glas gegenüber meinem alten 30x75 eine klare Verbesserung, und erste kleine Test mit Kamera und Handy lassen ebenfalls Gutes erwarten. Ggf. werde ich meine Besprechung hier um weitere Erfahrungen mit dem Glas ergänzen.
Both scopes are heavy though need a good stable tripod.
