What Eyepieces Best Detect Colors of Stars?Posted By Herbert Kraus |
A question for you experts about eyepieces and optics: What type of eyepieces would do the best job of bringing out the subtle color contrasts of double stars and the redness of carbon stars in visual observing?

Used on the same night in the same telescope, some eyepieces with a more modest reputation seem to bring out star colors more effectively.)
