kidlands Posted June 26, 2010 Share Posted June 26, 2010 I'm looking at this eyepiece too. How do you find your Williams Optics SPL?steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gadget Posted June 26, 2010 Author Share Posted June 26, 2010 Hi SteveThe SPL is a very nice eyepiece but the 2 i like best are the QX and the B/O both get more use than the othersKev Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johninderby Posted June 26, 2010 Share Posted June 26, 2010 They're the same optically as the "58 Degree TMB designed Planetary" eyepieces that the same dealer is already selling at £36.00 so I suppose he's had to cut the price on this particular eyepiece to match or perhaps he just got a good deal on them.The "58 Degree TMB designed Planetary" eyepieces are a great buy at the moment and they do the full range from 2.5mm to 25mm. I've picked up a few myself at that price. The 8mm is particularly good and I found it to be sharper than the TMB II 6mm.I had a TMB II 6mm but I "swapped" the TMB II for one of the other 6mm ones so that I would have a matching set.

gfletcher Posted June 26, 2010 Share Posted June 26, 2010 I bought one of these a month or so ago .The first time i used it i was stunned at the quality of image, especially Saturn.i found the quality a step up to my 6mm volcano top circle T ortho and so much easier to use with the long eyerelief Graham Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shibby Posted June 30, 2010 Share Posted June 30, 2010 Would this be a decent planetary eyepiece with a 130P? Or is that pushing my luck? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gadget Posted June 30, 2010 Author Share Posted June 30, 2010 I think that gives you a mag of around 108x for that scope which im sure is well within the comfortable range of its opticsSo would think would work nicelyKev Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
