Magnifications

Posted By Mike Clemens

Flexible magnifications AND Rapid? Not sure!

A ~flexible~ solution is the Baader FFC which is good for 2x-8x, but to make it quick you would need to remember 3 things - your spacing settings ahead of the FFC, spacing behind the FFC, and the focus setting for each magnification. With practice this becomes rapid but it takes a bit of hair pulling first.

I sold all my Radians after comparing them head to head one night with supermonos. (They were my planetary ep before.)

Holy Low Angle Cassini Division, Batman !!!!

I love it! Bring smelling salts if I ever get around an eyepiece of Saturn under conditions like that.
