Eyepieces and scopesPosted By Paul Wehr |
Hello Group,
I have not seen much action on this forum lately; maybe we can get it going with a few questions and thoughts.
Has anyone done any side-by-side comparison of the Zeiss .965 barrel Ortho’s and the newer Zeiss 1.25 “ Ortho’s? I know they call the newer 1.25” abbes, but I was always under the impression that the .965-barrel oculars were the true abbes.
I also am curious of users thoughts on performance on faster scopes using these oculars.
Lastly, does any body have any thoughts on the value of these Zeiss oculars changing and be coming less desirable as all the new planetary eyepieces being designed by TMB and AP and possibly TV come to market. Same question on the Zeiss scopes, will they become less valuable and desirable as the quality of newer scopes to the market place exceed these designs?
