8mm Eyepiece
I'm considering what eyepieces are next in line on my wishlist, and whilst reading this site I find that many of you seem to prefer to observe with two or three main eyepieces, I quite like having a range to step up or down by smaller increments of magnification.
So, as a step down in magnification from my 6 mm (which I haven't got to use all that often this summer due to the seeing) at 200x I would like a 8 mm (150x). Now I am not keen on using a Plossl, irrespective of quality, below about 15 mm, due to the low eye relief and small eye lens.
The only 8mm I have come across of Vixen LV quality or above that isn't a plossl is the Nagler, and this will be on the wish list for much longer than a cheaper eyepiece, can anyone give me other recommendations? Note that I'm not too bothered about the apparent field of view (anything 45 deg or better).
