32mm or 38mm 2" SW PanaView??

[pritc]

Hi All,

Need some advice on which eyepiece to get for my 200P.

Looking at getting a Skywatcher 2" PanaView but which one??

32mm or 38mm??

Any advice on which one is the best for overall viewing with my scope?

Thanks in advance,

Wayne

You scope is F5, so the 32mm gives a 6.4mm exit pupil and the 38mm gives a 7.6mm exit pupil. The latter exit pupil is larger than most peoples pupil size so you will probably lose a bit of light if you opt for the 38mm. As a finder EP however, the 38mm would show you much more sky.

I have a 32mm Panaview I am selling Wayne, if you are interested. I am selling because it is to 'long' for use in my F4 Newt, I can see the secondary's shadow.

I have read I need something around 20mm or shorter.

PM me if interested mate.

The 32mm would be my choice - the oversize exit pupil that the 38mm would deliver wastes some of the the aperture of your scope.
