Hi,

If i was going to get some more eyepieces i guess i may get rid of the radian 5mm. Anyway i can look at the following to round out my collection, assuming i decide to fork out the money .

Option 1

24 mm panoptic, 116, 232 barlowed
OR
26 mm nagler, 107, 214 barlowed

AND

55 mm televue plossl, 50 by, nearly a bino mag view

AND

maybe swap the 5mm radian for a 6mm radian

Option 2

Get a F6.3 focal reducer, this would give me

5mm radian, effectively 7.9 mm with reducer
11mm nagler, effectively 17 with reducer
16 mm nagler, effectively 25 with reducer
35 mm panoptic, effectively 55 with reducer

so option 2 gives me the 25 and 55 mm more cheaply

Option 3

Bankrupt myself and get

7mm nagler
26 mm nagler
55 mm plossl

Wha do you guys think?
