Scott,

Something else to consider is the 17mm Nagler T4. This is a 2" eyepiece and has much longer eye-relief than the 16mm NT5. It is more money but it is also one of the best Nagler eyepieces of all and one of my favourite eyepieces, although I don't own 1. It may be worth shopping around for one 2nd hand on Astromart. Another option is to look for a 2nd hand 16mm Nagler T2 on Astromart, this is also a very nice eyepiece and less money than the 16mm NT5.

David,

Louie's 16mm nagler is a type 2 not a type 5 which Scott is considering, but as mentioned above may be a good option for him.
