Bottletopburly Posted May 16, 2018 Share Posted May 16, 2018 I am after an eyepiece for the mak for centering In on planets before popping in the planetary cam I used to use a 6mm Meade but dropped it a while ago , it didn’t survive , I’ve seen some cheapish £10 eyepieces quality not too important on ENS optical what would be the better one for the mak 4,5,6 , in the 200p the 6mm used with a 2x Barlow wasn’t far off what the qhy5 was so only needed bit of tweaking to bring to focus but not sure on the mak fov .

+Graham Posted May 16, 2018 Share Posted May 16, 2018 Interesting. When I was using a web cam I always used an 8mm EP to centraliser the target. I cannot see it will make much difference to your routine what ever scope you are going to use. You will still need the same focal point be it on a frac newt or mak. Of course I could well be wrong but the logic says I am not. Bottletopburly 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bottletopburly Posted May 16, 2018 Author Share Posted May 16, 2018 Cheers Graham I will order a 6mm as long as there’s a blob on screen ? +Ibbo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
