exeplorer-130p best barlow/eyepiece

[narcoss]

I have 130p was wondering whats the eyepiece/barlow i could buy?.

£200 i have to spend.

its a fast telescope so you would benefit from high quality EPs, Televue being one of if not the best.

you will want a few different sizes, what do you have and what do you want to observe with them?

The moon if not saturn i can that not gonna happen, or is it?.

the wider the better.

Meade - Meade Series 5000 Super Plossl

Baader Planetarium - Baader Hyperion 68 degree eyepiece

both of these are held in high regard, note the variety of sizes, higher the mm the lower the magnification

I will definitely second Nick's suggestion of Baader Hyperions with this scope - I have two (8mm and 24mm)

Thanks.

what about a barlow should i get one or not?.

[Mikea]

What EPs do you currently have?

[narcoss]

hi there

i phoned shop a bought it from pulsar, they agreed with what meade 5000, baader, but if i wanted that i should be more realistic, GSO 8 £90.00 incl delivery.

anybody know about these?

Sorry - I don't understand what you mean by "GSO 8 £90.00". Is this an 8mm eyepiece made by GSO for £90.00? Sounds a bit pricey to me, but I don't think that is what you mean. GSO make some reasonable eyepieces as far as I know, although I don't own any. You could get an 8mm Hyperion for close to £90 or the 5000 eps are around £65.

the meade 5000 series are on special at first light optics, they are at a fine price.
