Orion 18mm Epic ED2 vs. Smart Astronomy 19mm Extra Flat Field (EF)

Posted by David Russell 05/31/2009 07:00AM

If you’re on a tight budget, but looking for something better than inexpensive plossls, the Orion Epic ED2 line and the Smart Astronomy EF line may fall into your price range. Eyepieces from both lines can be purchased for less than $100 and therefore won’t break the bank.

Televue Dioptrx and your Pentax XW40 and XW30

Low power, wide field views in the fabled Pentax XW40 and XW30 eyepieces are compromised by your own astigmatism. Fortunately the TV dioptrx is right at home on top of your 30 and 40mm Pentax XWs.
