Hi all, I must have been stuck in Chris's defunct other thread. But glad to join in again.

I'm aware of the narrow fov, and that's a shame. If the Orthos give a sharp clear image as all the reviews claim, then I will be satisfied.
The UO HD Abbe Orthos at the moment will each cost $80.00 USD plus shipping.

I'm still thinking of the Televue Plossls (8mm & 15mm). Can anyone comment on how the orthos compare with these Televue Plossls? $115.00 Aus from Bintel.

Any comments regarding how the Orion Stratus 8mm performs. I'v read
one review which claimed the Stratus to almost equal one of the Televue eps, saying it's a clone of the Televue (must find the review). If the Stratus is that good I would buy one now and another later on.

Richard
