Position and Size of etalon in Lunt 35 vs Lunt 50

[pluton]

Hello,

I've heard that the Lunt 50 has an etalon of 20mm.
It is smaller than the one that takes the Lunt 35?
In relation to the position of the etalon, the better the front position of Lunt 35 or inside the Lunt 50?
As for the tuner, which is the best of both? the air pressure or manual control of inclination?

It would be worth the money difference between a model Lunt 35 Dx, and the Lunt 50?

Thank you very much for your comments and advice.

Paul,

I have only used the 60mm Lunt with a tilt tune etalon thus I am unable to answer your questions, maybe it would be worth asking Lunt regarding the more technical details. However, I am sure they will tell you the more expensive scope is the better choice

When all is said and done I am sure the 50mm would deliver more pleasing views than the 35mm, so if you in a position to swallow the difference in price go for the 50mm.

I think the guys on Solar Chat gave you the answer......

The internal etalon in the Lunt 50 is around 28mm...

The larger aperture is better.
