If you had £100 to spend on 2 lenses?

[badboybubby]

For a 1500 focal length (127 Mak)

And you already had a decent 10mm in your set of eyepieces

And a half decent 25mm

And was interested in a bit of DSO in dark skies

What would you buy?

any advice as always would be truly appreciated.......

Hmmmmm

You have a 25mm giving x60

And a 10mm giving x150

So all you need is a 15mm giving x100 .....

First Light Optics - William Optics SWAN eyepiece

I would get 2 bst explorers 25, 18, 12 and 8 being my favourates i think the 18 and 12 are the best of the bunch

I'd look out for a used 16mm UWAN / Nirvana

[BertUK]

i would go for maybe Celestron X-Cel LX 5mm Eyepiece 1.25" | Telescope Accessories | Rother Valley Optics for some nice close up stuff and then Baader Hyperion 17mm 1.25" / 2" Eyepiece | Telescope Accessories | Rother Valley Optics for some truly amazing deep space views

if you are looking to maximise the field, then personally, based on what you have and that you want to maximise DSO viewing (I presume you mean wide field views at dark sites?) then what about a single eyepiece?

Telescope House TeleVue 32mm Plossl Eyepiece 1.25"

I think would come in at £96 with the 10% off offer?

if the above is not correct then Telescope House TeleVue 15mm Plossl Eyepiece 1.25" (£67) plus a better barlow? to make more use of all your eyepieces.

spend it on petrol and get to a dark site lol

[Rossco72]

Or a good quality barlow which will give you a 5mm and 12.5mm from your current EP's and if you get a good one you can keep it for years and use it on any future EP's

Cheers

Sounds like sage advice!
