Hi everyone. We are first time users and first time purchasers of a telescope. We bought one at Xmas at Yorkoptical in Sydney. It is a Skywatcher (made in China) and it came bundled with 2 eyepieces- a 10mm and a 25mm. From what I have gathered from looking at this site these would be less than optimal for viewing, but being first-timers we didn't know any better. We went back to the shop today and asked about a Barlow and were advised not to purchase this but rather a 5.2mm eyepiece (it doesn't seem to have a brand name). After looking at the forum we are new totally confused as to what eyepieces to purchase. Should we dispense with the ones that came with the telescope and start from scratch? Should we keep the 5.2mm or are we better off having a good quality 10mm with a good Barlow? We are confused! Any advice much appreciated!!
