The Celestron NexStar 4 SE has a lot of neat features for what is considered a beginners telescope. It has a very unique flip-mirror, and a polar wedge mounted to its sturdy tripod.

The Celestron NexStar 4 SE telescopes utilizes the awesome Maksutov-Cassegrain design. This design uses a Maksutov lens and small secondary spot, resulting in high power, contrasty views of the planets and deep sky objects.

The unique flip mirror on this telescope allows a camera to be attached at the rear (with the necessary adapter) and an eyepiece to drop in just above that. Switching between camera and eyepiece couldn't be simpler.

Of all the telescopes I have ever owned, this comes close to being the king of portability. It has been a very reliable, durable and portable telescope. Camping trips, car rides, and other outings are perfect for this telescope, and you don't have to worry about losing collimation with the Maksutov-Cassegrain design.

With a 4" diameter mirror, and an extremely solid mount this telescope can do it all. Beginner astrophotography? No problem. Quick trips? Check.

I can't say enough about this fantastic telescope, other then I highly recommend it!
