i guess im looking to use it to aid my viewing from a back yard in the middle of perth. It will be running in mainly a 10" Skywatcher, though i wouldn't mind using it in the 12" meade from time to time and maybe a little bit of photography. I don't get the chance to go out to dark sites very often. Im not worried about coloured filters I have given them a crack before and found them a bit ordinary, they really come into their own when imaging in b&w.
I have heard that Astronomik's are some of the best out there, and im still a firm beliver in buy the best your pocket can afford even if you have to move from Maggi mega noodles to Mi Goreng for a month
Anybody around perth that could aid me in a bit of show and tell for filters.
