Hi,
I'm looking for a Panaview wide angle eye piece. 32 or 38mm. Willing to pay up to £50 or would consider swapping Canon 1000d.
Thanks
Simon

So I picked up a classic... a 1970's - 80's edmund optics f6 150mm newtonian...
... like this one but mine has a different mount. It was cheap. Very good condition. The focuser is pants. The mechanics of the secondary holder is (IMHO) brilliant and apparently the primary is 1/10th wave.
But its f6 and I trhink I'd rather swap it out for a faster synta f5 mirror. . The thing is its a one shot job bc to make the f5 mirror work I will have to saw off a good few cm from the barrel of the scope.
So the question is: Is a high quality f6 mirror better than a faster synta f5 mirror for wide deep space astrophotograhy?
All comments gratefully received. 😉

Hi there! I’m looking forward towards purchasing a new wide FOV eyepiece from FLO (first light Optics ) and I do to know which one to pick!
i will be using it on my f/6 8” Skywatcher dob and hoping to get good views of the Orion’s nebula , (large nebulae in general) andromeda and others.
I ve heard the panaview 32mm is a good choice but I d like to know about the other options as well. I would like the budget to be around 100€
Clear skies, Kronos.

I am considering this eyepiece for my refractors. It would be used with and without Baader barlow 2.25x.
Has anybody tried this combo?
In the past I tried the BCO 10mm, but I let it go.

The Wizard Nebula
An emission nebula 7,200 light years away and my first proper project of the new imaging year.
Really happy with it as I’ve had a steep learning curve with new kit so really pleased to see this image come together. It’s also the first time I’ve imaged it.
72x180s subs collected over 2 nights 24/25th August in my Bortle 7 back garden, Whitley Bay, England
Calibrated with darks, flats and dark flats in DSS and processed in SiriL and Photoshop.
