petere001 Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 Been reading the eyepices thread and seeing what i might need. But then i came accross these on Amazon and was just wondering would these be ok to get me started?http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00006RH5I/ref=asc_df_B00006RH5I6188635?smid=A3P5ROKL5A1OLE&tag=googlecouk06-21&linkCode=asn&creative=22206&creativeASIN=B00006RH5INot exactly got the ones that are "suggested" for an f/8 scope which is why i wanted to post this question to find out if i should invest the money or not.Peter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bullettooth Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 if you do go down the ep 'set' route you can get them hereFirst Light Optics - Eyepiece Setspersonally i wouldnt go that way. im going to get a couple of individual ep's of a bit better quality for less money as ive read that filters are not that important for just observing. upto you tho. just my 2p worthgood luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 Super plossls are the same as normal plossls these days - it's just a marketing term. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rwilkey Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 The GSO plossl's are a great set, as long as you don't have to wear spectacles when looking through an eyepiece. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rwilkey Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 The trouble is they are a bit expensive, but obviously well worth the money, great quality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
