Megrez 88 + 2" diagonal + WO Binoviewer

[lsastro]

Anyone with experience on this target setup for observation - deep sky? Will the Megrez88 + WO Bino have focus with 2" diagonal?

Tks for looking,

Luis

I may be wrong but I would think that set up might be to dark for deep skies (if dsos is what you mean)

Megrez88 advantage is to be a f5.6 in 88 mm aperture, grab and go.... I got explendid views of brighter DSOs with nagler22, ethos13 - would you say that the binoviewer would require more aperture for good viewing, even for brighter targets?

Thanks,

Luis

given the extra surfaces and the splitting of the light path I think it might be an issue but NB I have not used the set up in question -I just flagged it in case you hadn't thought of it...

Ok, I will take in account. Good if someone could give real experience feedback. I can always use the bino in the TOA130...
