Hi Daniel,

There's the Meade QX in a 26mm 2", 70 degree. It's ok in a f/6 or slower scope. These come as the standard eyepiece with Lightbridge's so they are always readily available second hand.

I have one of these, but I'd certainly buy the Pan27 (or Pan24) in preference.

Cheers,
Jason.

If you can find one, a second hand Meade 5000 SWA 28mm 2" ocular. They were being cleared out last year for <$US100.

I'm happy to lend you a Meade QX 26mm for a while, if you can come and collect it.

PM to make arrangements.

I will pass on the Meade have seen one & wasn't overly impressed I have found a Apm 26mm that I will try

Get the 27 Pan and you wont have to spend that money on trying others. Only $303 at Bintel!
