[NOT REQUIRED] Televue 3-6 Nagler Zoom

Profiler (Profiler) · #1 15-07-2014, 08:00 PM

I am not having much luck finding a 4mm Vixen eyepiece so as an alternative does anyone have a Televue 3-6 Nagler zoom which they might consider selling? If so please send me a PM

Depending on your scopes FL you might want to also consider a 2-4 zoom as well if you can't find a 3-6

Thanks for the suggestion - no problem

Okay - if anyone has a 2-4 nagler zoom they might think of selling please let me know - I am simply after a good quality 4mm eyepiece - so if you have anything else that might do the job please fell free to send me a PM

Have you thought about looking o'seas such as AM if you can't source one locally?

I got stung once with an o'seas purchase and hence always prefer to buy local - looking for a 4mm EP - ideally a nagler zoom but I am open to any suggestions

Bump

Still looking just in case someone has one they might consider selling

Not many people seem to pay attention to the "Wanted" ads, but if 3-6 zoom comes up for sale you'll have to be quick, or I'll beat you to it

Cheers

Hi Steffan

Fair enough - to be honest I am simply after any good quality 4mm (or slightly less) eyepiece. So if anyone has any suggestions please send me a PM

I'd have a 5mm LV for sale – after I score a 3-6

Cheers
Steffen.

I tried asking for a 4mm Vixen LV or NLV but no luck on that front either - unfortunately 5mm is a fraction to low

Do you have a Barlow or Powermate? Or do you prefer not to use one?

I was pretty happy with the performance of my 4mm UWAN on Mars earlier this year, but my 10mm Pentax XW with 2.5x Powermate was slightly better.

Hi Morton

Just noticed your post - thanks for the suggestion. Yes - I do have barlows but I am trying to develop my conceptually perfect grab-n-go set up and thus I am trying to keep things to 3 essential eyepieces with no barlows etc.

So - still looking for a Nagler zoom in case anyone has one they don't need anymore
