Hi

I used to own a 26mm celestron silver top and still have a 26mm Televue plossl. In terms of sharpness I couldn't tell hem apart. The televue has the warmer hue which I quite like but I could not pick a winner. I kept the Televue for name sake. Both are equally great eyepieces. The televue works well in very low f ratio scopes but I didn't test the celestron at very low f ratios - fairly sure it would be identically good though. Both were super sharp at f5.7.

I'm presently looking for a pair for the 26 televue for binoviewing rather than buying 2 x 25 plossls - but they are hard to find. Is there a site where you found the silver top with 2nd hand eyepieces (maybe I could find a televue pair).

Cheers,
Dave
