mick i had a great view of saturn and it's moons with my 8mm hyperion, this is the guy ;

note though that an 8mm on the CPC is 350x, which is rather extreme and i think i was lucky in terms of atmosphere conditions that morning (at 3:30am i think!).

I'm not really an expert on them though so other people may have better suggestions. If you swing past my house one night when it's clear you can borrow it to give it a try. I also have a 11mm televue and a 3x williams optics barlow you could try.

I'll tell you what, you give me your Evo on a dirt track for a few hours and you can have the 8mm haha
