I use my GSO 9mm,(Thanks Darren),and a 7mm UO orthoscopic,very often in my ED80,with NO problems at all.

BUT,these shorter focal lengths may cause brightness loss during DAYTIME.
I really dont know,as I leave daytime viewing to Binoculars.

I use these at night,mainly on planets,Saturn,for eg,is stunning,even with the 7mm Barlowed,giving about 170x Magnification.

Best Regards.
John
