  1. Thank you for the advice. I have dabbled with my hobby for years but now I am getting more into it. Now I need to sort all the finer details of viewing. Collimation is an area I am going to need to keep on top of. My ES EP's range from 3mm Ler 52. In fact  they are all 52 deg, I might invest in a couple of  Ler 62 but apparently I can go no wider with the fast scopes in my possession. Thanks to everyone for the advice, I really appreciate your comments.

      Don't be scared by the collimation issue, it can be a bit complicated at first but in reality it's more practical than science. As for the ES LER lenses, from what I've read about them they have excellent quality (https://stargazerslounge.com/topic/328615-my-honest-review-of-the-52-degree-series-from-explore-scientific/), so don't worry about getting new eyepieces with a larger apparent field, in fact for planetary or lunar observation I don't think you need them.
