Hey Paul,
Thanks for the info. I am leaning towards a 10”, I don’t think I can sufficiently justify the extra money (and weight) for the difference in views. To be honest I was very happy with my old 8” newt and now spend most of my time imaging now so not looking for anything major.
As for the magnification, I see there’s a new post related to it, but yea of course it depends on the size of the object. I’m not too concerned about the larger objects as they tend to be brighter and easier to see details. So essentially you use 120x and ~200x depending on your target? I think that would be reasonable for me to start on, getting two EPs to give that range. I noticed you have the 22T4, how does it perform? I was thinking a 22T4 and then an Ethos 13mm. Have you looked through a delos or ethos? Reckon its worth extra $$$ or trading for a lower AFOV?
By the sounds of it, for the same magnification there won’t be too much a difference between the 10” and 12”. I’ll get the filters much later down the track, having a hard enough time decided with dob to get! Thanks Paul
Meru
