Hello,
I would like info on the best 5mm EP with the least amount of elements and at least a 50' FOV. I have a 12.5" f/4.9 scope and would like a nice planetary EP that would not shy away from the DSO's. I have a 7mm UO ortho, but crave a bit more FOV and ER. If I can get 5 more degrees in the FOV with a plossl and the same number of elements, why not? I have been tempted by the 4.8mm Nag sale going on, but I am afraid the contrast for planets would not be there. I have owned the 4mm radians and was not impressed. Perhaps a high quality plossl is what I need. Any suggestions? :S
Thanks,
Todd
