Hi All,
If I had a 12"inch dob in say light to polluted skies how would it compare to using an 8"inch dob in absolute dark clear skies (if all things being equal in terms of the same eyepieces being used, same brand of scope, etc).
My thinking is that the 12" would still pick things up easier, but the image would not be as bright/contrasty (if such a word?). On the other hand the 8" in dark skies would show things crisper/bright?
I'm not even sure if there is a point to my question, just something I'm curious about.
