The budget would be nice.

Hello,

I agree with what was said about the Televue and it also maintains good 2nd hand resale value. The ability to use on the EP's on any scope, esp. fast ones gives them great utility.

However, if your not migrating to really fast scopes there are more budget friendly options that offer very high performance. There are brands of 100degree EP's that would perform exceptional well at F5+ and can be had for $450 posted. That's about $200 less than a similar performing ES ep and $500+ cheaper than Televue. You will lose some of the correction afforded by televue but at F8 its not relevant, at F4.5 it gets extra weighting.

So, it depends on how you want to view the investment, the ability to migrate between scopes and the resale value of Televue is a strong feature imo. But spending hundreds extra is the draw back.
