Orion V-Block Filter

Posted By steve rothstein

Has anyone used this filter yet? I need to know whether views exhibit a yellow cast (like the Sirius MV1) or is it more like the Sirius MV20 which is more natural?

Thanks.

Meade QX Series Super Wides

Hi:

Does anyone yet have any experiences looking through these new eyepieces yet? I am interested in comparisons to the TV Panoptics. The FOV is greater and price is much lower and with good eye relief.

Hi Dan:

Looks like a beautiful image to me. A lot of exposure time is right! Nice work!
