I've got a 9mm GSO plossl. But it would be good if someone had a 6mm, because i've still got Geoff's (slice of heaven's) 6.5mm series 500.

So the next budget shootout can be between:

6mm GSO plossl
6.5mm series 500
6.3mm synta super plossl
6mm UO HD Ortho

Maybe Bintel can loan me a 6mm GSO plossl, but I don't know where we can source a synta super plossl from.

A problem with comparing 6mm eyepieces, is that the seeing needs to be above average to get anything useful from the session. And it's not quite planet season yet with Mars rising too late still, but maybe this 6mm shootout can be planned for later in october.
