[amasot] Re: Drop 10mm Speers for Pentax XL 10.5mm?


Mike Wirths
 

Geez this group is busier than you know what other group! It maketh me
chuckle!

-Anyhow Attilla's and Richards responses were so thorough that I have little
else to add except that my experience with the Speers is that they are a
good middle of the road quality ep that does well in a slow scope (not too
good in a fast dob though), but can't compare with the Pentax in terms of
quality.
Zeiss- yes they are the penultimate ep in terms of quality, the Germans
spare no expense in making the best of the best. The Zeiss eps I'm getting
are 54 deg AFOV which is not too bad, they come in 25,16,10mm sizes and are
only slightly more expensive than the Tak el eps. The Canadian distributer
is Maison Astronomie, through the German dealer Markus Ludes. Heres his
website it has a lot of rare, and unusual eps:
Some of the better ones are the Nikons,and from what i hear the ultrscan ep.
Zeiss also makes a 90 deg ep but its expensive and has not enough in focus
on fast scopes.
So we'll have to do some comparsons at my place when the weathers a little
warmer and hands don't freeze from handling eps!
I have to run, I have to start marinating some Tandoori chicken (sorry to
tease you Richard but there will be other times!). I know Rol I told you and
Janice that I'm making butter chicken but the recipe Tandoori so its doubley
rich!

Wow, when people help around here, they REALLY HELP! Merci Beaucoup
for the links and advice. I've now read every link, ( and feel
more confused than before! ). I guess nothing beats doing a side by
side comparison. Perhaps I might be able to do that sometime, if I
can just manage to pry the 10.5mm Pentax XL from Richard's happy
fingers.

Zeiss? Isn't that the German company that makes these really great
camera lenses? Mike, you around here somewhere? What are the Zeiss
eyepieces like for fine details on the planetary viewing? Would it
easily beat a U.O. Ortho, if that was the main purpose?

Anyway, thanks very much for all the help. Now, instead of not
remembering accurately the fine details of what you so kindly explain
to me, I can just look up the relevant postings!

As Janice would say:

Photons 4 Phreedom!!
