I want to get a bit more power out of my 12.5" f/5 dobbie
My shortest f/l eyepiece is a 7mm T6 which, when used with my soon-to-be-ordered Paracorr, will deliver about 260x. I'm thinking about a 6mm Radian (about 304x w/Paracorr) and/or a 5mm T6 (365x w/Paracorr). Or maybe a Pentax 5mm XW?
With my hand-driven dobbie I'm partial to wide field ep's so that limits my choices a bit and with the extra glass of the Paracorr I want to avoid barlows...
TIA for your input
