Going with all Naglers?
      08/05/08 07:23 PM

I've decided that the time has come to upgrade my eyepiece collection. I currently have an assortment of generic plossls (6, 9, 15, 25 and 32mm), a 19mm Antares W70, two BO Planetaries (4 and 9mm) and a 13T6 Nagler. My scopes are an 8" F/6 dob for visual and an 80mm F/6.9 refractor for imaging and visual.

I really like the 13T6 and it definitely gets the most use, so I'm thinking about going the all Nagler route. I am proposing to add 9T6 and 22T4 Naglers for now. Haven't decided the extreme high/low power yet, maybe a 3-6 zoom and a 31T5.

I do have a 1.25" 2x barlow, but I'm likely going to replace that with a 2" 2X Powermate that I can also use for imaging with the 80mm.

Thoughts?
