Hey guys,
I've had my 10" dob now for two nights and I've never been so amazed! Instead of dreading night time (means its closer to another day at work
) I can't wait for it!
Anyway, I've been reading up on eye pieces, how to calculate magnification etc. I'd just like to find out if I'm on the right track.
Am I right in saying that the higher focal length eye prices are good for deep space, and the lower for planets?
On the subject of purchasing new pieces, I'd really prefer to only have a max of 4 eye pieces or ill end up spending all night changing them around haha.
At the moment I've got a 25mm plossl, 10mm plossl and a 12.5mm unknown brand (but is marked with an H).
I imagine my next step would be a 2x Barlow and probably something 4mm and under?
Any suggestions on what I should purchase/ read up on, I'd really appreciate it.
Thanks for spending your time on a rather long thread,
Andrew
