Hi Trevor,
When you say Orthoscopic eyepiece what do you mean?
As for the ones you have, what brand are they?
I assume that most of the ones I have listed are orthoscopic? You are correct in assuming a small FL is the one I am after, as for the mag levels I have now, I prefer the least amount of glass in the way (ie no barlow) to get higher mag and therefore something smaller than 10mm seems the way to go.
I think the idea of a zoom eyepiece, either a LP or WO would be great for the reason I dont have to change EP's to zoom in.
As I currently use the 30mm 2" and the 1.25" 12.5mm ED the most and I now subscribe to the idea that one quality EP is better value than many average ones, I thought a sub 10mm quality EP is the best choice.
I have also been thinking of getting a binoviewer ($149) and an additional 12.5mm ED ($69), 20mm SW ($29) and 10mm SW ($29) to have three different stereoscopic mag levels for around $280 all up?
Too many choices I suppose.....and the Televue Ethos 13mm is out of the price range
Thanks to all for the comments also.
Cheers
Chris
