Mewlon 210, Vixen VC 200L

Hi Guys,

I really want to get some extra focal length and go galaxy hunting. At the moment I have narrowed my choices to a Vixen VC 200 L or a Mewlon 210.

I would be using the scope with my SBIG 2000 XCM. Without a focal reducer the Mewlon would give me an image scale of 0.63 arcsecs/pixel and the Vixen 0.85 arcsecs/pixel.

Is this image scale to ambitious (on an EQ6), and which scope do you think would give better results.

Any input appreciated

Cheers
Paul
