I had an Orion Zoom (actually two for binoviewer). They were good, but the Baader was sharper, more contrast and more AFoV. I think that worth it the extra $. -------------------- TeleVue 85 w/FeatherTouch Panoptic 35 Panoptic 24 Nagler 16 T5 Radian 6 Hyperion Baader Zoom 8-24 TeleVue Barlow 2x TeleVue Powermate 5x Orion Binoviewer Pair of TeleVue plössl 20mm Pair of RKE 15mm Post Extras       Entire thread Subject Posted by Posted on Baader Hyperion 8-24 mm zoom EP WNCAGC 08/03/08 05:30 PM Re: Baader Hyperion 8-24 mm zoom EP jimmer136   08/05/08 09:36 PM Re: Baader Hyperion 8-24 mm zoom EP Sky Captain   08/03/08 11:09 PM Re: Baader Hyperion 8-24 mm zoom EP Edwin Quiroga   08/03/08 07:31 PM Re: Baader Hyperion 8-24 mm zoom EP CESDewar   08/06/08 01:18 AM Re: Baader Hyperion 8-24 mm zoom EP PEterW   08/08/08 02:26 PM Re: Baader Hyperion 8-24 mm zoom EP redsquash   08/10/08 07:53 AM Re: Baader Hyperion 8-24 mm zoom EP Edwin Quiroga   08/10/08 08:44 AM Re: Baader Hyperion 8-24 mm zoom EP Beast   08/12/08 02:24 PM Re: Baader Hyperion 8-24 mm zoom EP Mike K   08/12/08 02:33 PM Re: Baader Hyperion 8-24 mm zoom EP Edwin Quiroga   08/03/08 07:35 PM Extra information 18 registered and 12 anonymous users are browsing this forum.
