Latest Additions

The EP collection has expanded slightly. Latest additions are an 8mm Ethos and (at the other end of the cost scale!) a 30mm Bintel (GSO) Superview 68deg.

The pic attached show the complete EP set. At the back from left to right are Ethos 8, 10, 13, 17 and 21 and a Panoptic 41.
At the front the 30mm and 15mm Superview, 25mm Coronado Cemax (came with my solar scope) and a 12mm Orion reticle EP (used to get more accurate alignments for the Argo)

The Superviews were purchased mainly to use in my little homemade 8" as I felt the Ethoi are a bit too heavy, good news is I found that the scope handles even the 41 Pan OK. The 8mm Ethos is a ripper. Viewed the Trapezium the other night in it with the 20". Could make out E and F stars so easily and even caught hints of G and H!
