Worth a look at this whole series. |
For years I've meant to get a University Optics 6 or 7mm ortho for planetary viewing. Now when I can afford it, along comes the Burgess with very good reputation and competitive pricing. Although I don't need the extra field of view for planets, all else being equal this would make them the winner. On the other hand I've noticed since I joined IIS that some people with very good (and very expensive) equipment have UO orthos.
So, would anyone care to offer a comparison between the two?
