Founded in Germany in 1957, it was acquired by Mead Instruments in 1999, and then acquired ownership by Guangzhou Jinghua in 2009, and is now a subsidiary of Guangzhou Jinghua. Guangzhou Jinghua's astronomical telescopes accounted for 31% of the country's exports in 2005, and now it also owns Explore Scientific in the United States. In 2012, Astronaut and National Geographic jointly launched the National Geography telescope brand, in addition, it is also a cooperative brand of Decathlon telescopes, and India's Astronaut Today also listed Blockbuster as one of the top ten astronomical telescope brands.
 
The categories of Baoshide in the European market are relatively complete, from the 65 euros of refractive entry-level products to the 1400 euros of 152/1900 Maca, which are divided into two series, Bresser and Bresser Junior, which are aimed at adults and teenagers respectively, while the types of products sold in China are very small, and they are all entry-level products, of which the best-selling is 70AZ (88-45000).
 
70AZ is priced at 499 yuan, you can start with a good discount of 299 yuan, achromatic refraction, effective diameter 70mm, focal length 700mm, the observation effect is also very in line with the entry-level price, when watching the moon, the edges are blurred and chromatic, the details are not clear, it is really difficult to recommend. The 70-caliber entry-level model sold by Baoshide in Europe is Skylux, priced at 129 euros, and the appearance is the same as that of the 88-45000, but the actual observation effect is much better, although the edges are still a little blurry, but there is basically no chromatic aberration, and the details of the crater are clearer, and the amount of light is sufficient, which is a good choice as an entry-level.
 
It is difficult to buy the Skylux and Jupiter of the 70 caliber of Baoshide in China, if it is an entry-level refraction, it is more recommended EQ80, priced at about 860 yuan, or the reflective Pluto 114/500, priced at 1400 yuan. Pluto 144/500 can barely observe the planets, the imaging of Mars is still relatively small, Venus will be larger, you can see it, but there are no details at all, the effect is more obvious in terms of moon viewing, the amount of light is sufficient, the edges are clear, but if you look closely, you will find color difference, the details of the crater are relatively clear, the standard German equatorial mount, the accuracy and smoothness are guaranteed, the declination axis 360 degrees can be fine-tuned, and it is convenient to chase stars, which is worth recommending.
