The first observations with the 25 cm telescope of the Shumen Astronomical Observatory led to the following conclusions: (a) Intra-night observations of variable stars with an amplitude larger than 0.1 mag are possible down to 14 mag with an acceptable quality with this setup; (b) The equipment is suitable for observations of bright extended objects with sizes up to 30 arcmin (planets, comets, clusters, nebulae, galaxies) with resolution 0.88 arcsec/pix; (c) The guiding of telescope is very good which makes the equipment appropriate for prolonged patrols; (d) The observations with the 25 cm are already fully remote-controlled; (e) The determined transformation coefficients allow transfer from instrumental to standard photometric system BVRcIc and realization of differential photometry.
