Should I change my Hyperions?

[Hairycamel]

Hi All,

I have a set of Hyperions that I enjoyed immensly in my F10 SCT, but I have got rid of this a week or so ago.

I traded it for a 250PX Flextube dob which is much faster, and given some of the comments on here about astigmatism in fast scopes (mines F4.7) with the Hyperions I was thinking of changing.

I will be hopefully adding to my scope collection later in the year with a 100mm refractor so my ep's have to do both.

I was leaning towards a 32m Panaview, then some Celestron C-Cel LX's for the shorter numbers. Any opinions for reasonably priced EP

's that would do both? I'm not bothered about having a set of one make just the best that would do me at the various lengths.

you wont go wrong with the LX's, great at f5 and a fine price for what you get

TBH the Hyperions should be okay at least up to the 17mm. Comfortable to use and you already have them. Try them out first and see how you get on.

Sell, sell, sell.........how much do you want for the 8mm and 24mm????

Ah, not allowed anymore on here. Keep your eyes open on UK ABS for the set........maybe; if I ever make my mind up.

Hi

If I was you I would be looking at Televue eypieces, Radians or Naglers

you have a very fast scope there 4.7 , the faster the scope the better

the eyepieces should be, you will only get a few from selling you set

but should give you the results you want, Radians are lighter in weight in a Dob

Hello,

I sold all my hyperions a while back and brought 1 or two televues, the difference is very noticeable at f10 so at f4.7 it must be immense,

i doubt a panaview will give better views that the hyperions, i think you have to go less fov or premium to get better

I have both a couple of Panaviews and several Hyperions, there's not much in it but I'd suggest the Panaviews have the edge in my C11.

Thanks for that - I wish I could afford the folding for some lovely Televues, but I may afford 2 or 3 Skywatcher Nirvanas' . Thoughts?
