Sky-watcher127

At the time I was writing my first hello it was -10°C, but nonetheless it was fun I have to admit I'm having clear skies most nights, although being in the city i have limited seeing, but do plan on going to the outskirts, and hopefully see a lot more.

Thank you for all the advices, it was really informative, and you gave me something to think about Vixen SLV looks really good

Interesting choices and I see why no barlow. Since my budget is a bit bigger, would you change anything else? I mean not that I am asking to spend more, just wanted to see if the price range changes anything in terms of quality. Thank you

I forgot to mention mount is Az-Gti, I know it is not EQ, but it is a start. I have considered zoom EP, but not sure how they behave from end to end. I guess primes are always better, but like I said new to those stuff. I wouldn't want to save on those things as it is for the long run, but I also don't want to spend too much as I am just getting started. I would say somewhere in between 100 - 140€ per ep/barlow. I do own a D5600 nikon, with 70-200mm and a 18-50mm, so have something to start with, but would rather wait for a year rather than going all over the place and end up loosing interest. And mostly it would be for planetary and hopefully those not so dim DSOs.

Hi everyone, New to the forum, just wanted to say hi from sunny and freezing Croatia

Hello everyone, I need advice getting new eyepieces for my maks 127/1500. I have two eyepieces that came with it, 25mm and 10mm. Looking around the web, general consenzus is to replace 10mm. 25 mm is not that bad, but for me it seems the eye relief is a little small. My idea is to have 2-3 quality EP, and x2 barlow. Since i tend to overthink I can't really decide. For barlow I was thinking something in this price range https://www.astroshop.eu/barlow-lenses/celestron-x-cel-lx-1-25-2x-barlow-lens/p,24891 https://www.astroshop.eu/barlow-lenses/explore-scientific-barlow-lens-focal-extender-2x-1-25-/p,54035 For eyepieces I really don't know, I've read bunch of blogs, seen youtube videos bit still can't quite decide. Just to mention I don't wear glasses nor have astigmatism, but would be good if you can recommend something that will be ok for my 6 year old, if that counts as something. Oh, almost forgot I'd like to use telescope for astrophotography as well, but don't want to jump in just yet. Thank you
