Apogee orthos

Posted By Ivan Gastaldo
Jim, indeed, would be nice hearing from somebody that owns these eyepieces. Not sure how they stack up against the UO versions, which I consider pretty much "the standard" on orthos. (without going into the multi-million dollar brands)
I personally own the whole line of the original UO orthos, and love them to death... specially for planetary viewing. Very clean & sharp across the tight FOV... wink

Reticles

Wayne,

University Optics has a 12mm kellner and a 10mm plossl Illuminated Eyepiece.
Orion has also, besides the 5mm Ultrascopic, a 12.5mm plossl one.
Celestron has also a 10mm plossl, in which the illuminator is optional.

Enough Illuminated eyepieces to drive somebody crazy! wink

I would probably give the Celestron 12.5mm a shot, looks like a very nice eyepiece... too bad it is not adjustable.


Take care, and good luck! 8)

Hmmmm.... sounds too good to be true...
The mount alone is more than that, even used!
I smell fish! 8)


Of course, if this is true, and legal, it's one heck of a deal!
