It'll offer much better comfort than the 9mm and 15mm Plössls (comfort at the eyepiece is very important!) and of course the added convenience of not having to swap eyepieces.
Hah, point taken! I'm a musician as well so I'm no stranger to endless money sinks. At least eyepieces take up less room

Interesting, I had heard zooms weren't much good, but Baader is a name that people seem to recommend a lot, so I'll look into it. Cheers
