28mm RKE or ES 24mm 68degree
Hello,
Looking at the various Black Friday sales and with Christmas coming I was keen to upgrade my ep's.
The EP is to be used with a 8" Skywatcher dob F6.
I have the Vixen LV 8-24mm zoom which I am happy with, but the RKE offers that "immersive/no eyepiece" feeling that sounds pretty good.
The Vixen is 40degree at 24mm .8 degree FOV and x50mag;
the 28mm RKE is 1.05 degree FOV and x43mag;
the ES 24mm 68degree is 1.36 degree FOV and x50mag
However the ES 24mm 68 degrees is currently available for less than the RKE posted to the door.
Priority - comfort and ability to use the ep for extended periods, then FOV.
What are people's thoughts on the 28mm RKE versus the ES 24mm 68degree?
Thanks
Ps. I can see from a recent post that the FUJIYAMA 25mm should have made the list in the same price category.
