so, Xmas is coming soon (really?) and i can probably get someone else to buy me an eyepiece rather than forking out cash on myself.

I have:
- 5mm Sky-Watcher LET
- 20mm Sky-Watcher LET
- Bintel 2X ED Barlow

Where is the weak link in terms of quality?
The ED80, Barlow or eyepieces?

Is it pointless buying buying eyepieces of the quality of the pentax/Orion Stratus/baader hyperion? Would it be best to focus on the the WO's and LP's under $100?

My thoughts now are to upgrade the 5mm and 20mm eyepieces, giving me a range of 5, 10, 20, 40 mm.


- any thoughts on the quality or range questions is welcome.
- dannat has suggested the pentax xf as an option. From where can I pick one of those up in Melbourne or Australia.

regards,
DJDD
