paul schofield Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 What is the next eyepiece you are going to invest in ? Is it a tele view, baader, SW, Meade etc. thought I would ask as a research effort as I am looking for a good planetary as I never got along with my 5mm TMB. Thinking of a 7mm baader ortho All inputs will be researched tirelessly. Happy stargazing all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 I've just bought a nice used Tele Vue Nagler 3.5mm. It showed Mars excellently a couple of nights back with my 120mm ED refractor. With the recent Tele Vue price rise I saved around £130 on the new price by buying used Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RikM Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 My next 'eyepiece' will probably be a TV 2.5x Powermate but I'm in no rush to get one just now. I just heared that my Astronomic UHC filter is finally on the way, so I have that to play with for a little while. Will probably tide me over buying anything else until SGL7 if they do another astro 'bring and buy'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sunshine185 Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 Thinking of two vixen 15mm plossls, they are supposed to be excellent on contrast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ags Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 My scopes only take 1.25" EPs - I have 24mm and 17mm hyperions and 9mm and 6mm TMB clones, and an SR4 just for fun! After a year of buying EPs, i don't need any more. Phew! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ags Posted February 4, 2012 Share Posted February 4, 2012 I know. I would never spend over 150 on an EP, but camera lenses have me making plans for prices up to and over the Ethos level. Good thing I am on a strict budget... :-( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
