Hi guys,
I have a 16" LB and am thinking of buying a Paracorr but don't know anyone who has one. Does anybody have any experience with this combination (or I suppose any f4.5 system). My 2 workhorse ep. are a 9mm Nagler and 16mm Series 5000 (Ultra WF) Meade. I'm interested in:
- effectiveness in wide angle ep (such as the Nagler) compared to wide field (low power) ep?
- effect on balance on the LB, afterall the Paracorr is close to 500g in weight!
- How noticeable is the 15% barlow effect?
- does it change the eye relief?
- anything else?
THanks
Glenn
