Hi - I'm switching from a 16" f/5 Newt to a C-14 f/11. Does anyone here have an opinion about different eyepiece configurations for wide field/deep-sky observing? For example, would I get better results observing faint, extended objects if I used a Lumicon Rich Field Viewer and a 15mm eyepiece vs. using a 30mm eyepiece without the Lumicon adapter?
Also, I've read a number of reviews on various eyepieces here on AstroMart. But, most of them were done with smaller SCTs or refractors. Does anyone here have experience using wide field/long EFL eyepieces from William Optics, Russell Optics, GSO, or OWL? I can't afford to get "Nager-ized" right now. Thanks for any advice! - Chuck
