Hi Matt and MattT, you have talked me into it
I guess I really am searching for a wow factor. I will give binoviewing a go. I have a couple of questions though, hopefully you guys can help,
1.) I understand its a nightmare to get them to work with a big dob. I know I may have to barlow with them which limits the low power achievable, can I, instead of a Barlow, use an extension tube or even a series of them piggybacked if necessary?
2.) what would I do about eyepieces? Would I be correct in saying there is no point using premium eyepieces because the prisms will be cheap Chinese factory glass which will limit the EP's? I think I may have asked this question before but not sure of the answer.
3.) glend recently bought an andrews bino for $99 and he seemed happy with it, is this likely to be an ok choice if I don't want to commit to a binovue? I keep seeing the term BAK4 prisms. If they all have these they should all be roughly the same???? I don't know if the andrews one has this.
