Do I need a 2 inch star diagonal
I have a Skywatcher ST102, which I bought as a travel scope because I couldn't resist the price. It is in pristine condition, but I am just wondering whether it is worth getting a 2 inch star diagonal for it?
My thinking was that the larger diagonal combined with a matching 32mm lens would make a good Richfield scope. The question is, would the views be that much better than what I have at the moment which (in addition to the ones which came with the scope) are 1.25 inch Meade series 4000 32mm and 12.4mm combined with a 2x GSO shorty Barlow.
Given that I only paid $200 for the scope, I don't really want to over capitalise, so if not the 2 inch rig, is there something else I should work towards?
Thanks,
Matthew
