Next time try to move further or closer to eyepiece - the telescope exit pupil should coincide with the iris of your eye, both in size and distance from eyepiece
What is the f number of your mirror?

Hi Bojan
Thanks for the info. I did notice that I can really have a good look around inside the 40mm eyepiece.
The mirror is an F5
Thanks
Mick
