Hi Everyone,

After some deliberation and some shopping on the websites, I have decided on the Pentax XF 8.5mm. For only $229 it seems to have the quality of the Japanese optics without the bulk of the Meade or Ba'ader barrels. Bang for your buck is second to none and with four recommendations over the ones I have listed here, it seems to fit all the criteria.

All I have to do now is wait for it to arrive in the mail and I can put it to the test in both the Dob and the SW135.

Thanks for all the comments, and to John for some additional help and assistance.

Not sure how to close the poll, so........bye for now?

Cheers

Chris
