Hey Don,

What's your view on native short focal length eyepieces versus barlowing a longer focal length with a good barlow/powermate?

Do the look the same or do they lose a bit? I mean in general as I am sure there are lots of possible scenarios and not all eyepeices would behave the same but in general what would you expect?

I am thinking most likely there would be a gain going native as there would be less glass but then some eyepieces gain better correction y using a barlow/powermate.

Greg.
