Guest Darrian Posted February 23, 2012 Share Posted February 23, 2012 Hi guys ... could anyone recommend a good brand/make of eye pieces that would suit the watcher 200p ..? The standard ones wither scope are ok but the images become fuzzy as it nears the outer edge .. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+RonC Posted February 23, 2012 Share Posted February 23, 2012 I use BST EP's from Sky's the Limit, only £41 each and really good value for money, unless money is no object!! An 8mm and a 18mm seem good replacements? Ron Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
catman161 Posted February 23, 2012 Share Posted February 23, 2012 Baader Hyperion 8-24mm MK III Clickstop Zoom eyepiece is a great all in one eyepiece. I use mine with my 200p. Fantastic clarity and you can find what your looking for in 24mm mode then when found,simply turn the wheel and zoom in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rusty Strings Posted February 23, 2012 Share Posted February 23, 2012 I would suggest trying a few out at a dark site meet to get an idea of what different makes will offer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Perkil8r Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 I've got the same scope as you, I bought a BST 8mm and have to say it's worth every penny and then some! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Kheldar Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 Definately see if you can use some before purchasing, but in order of increasing cost (and quality,) BST Explorer (£41) Celestron X-Cel LX (£60) S/H Televue Radian (£100 ish) Would be my suggestions. A lot of people (I used to) use the Baader Hyperions (£100) which have a couple of cool features like adaptors that turn one EP into three varying focal lengths, and DSLR direct attachments. I put them above BST but below Celestron for edge correction and constrast. EPs are a very user specific thing, what works for one does not always work for another Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
