Hello: I too would be very interested in these binoculars. I know nothing about these and I can't find them on the WO website. So I would hope that they could...
Hi, I know there have been similar posts, but I can't seem to find anything relating to astrophotography in particular. I am stuck between Megrez ED triplet...
For that matter, use a long-focus, simple lens, as is done with a coronagraph. This provides the ultimate in a clean image, though a really good design uses...
I'd like to get a 7mm eyepiece for my M80FD and am in doubt between the UWAN or the Pentax XW. How is the UWAN on the Moon with regard to glare etc - basically...
Hi Mark, I only can speak for the UWAN, but I am very happy with it on the Moon and on deep sky objects. I was actually looking at the Moon last night quite...
Hi, I would suggest looking at the Gallery of photos on the WO website and compare the shots from scope to scope. You can search by product, or by object, and...
Hi, as of today the best field flattener available for the megrez super apo is the televue TRF-2008. Without the field flattener the lens cover about half the...
Hi Dave, Timm and Gimmi, I saw two Megrez telescopes passing by: Dave, do you mean the Megrez ED
triplet APO or the Megrez (super) APO? The first one has been...
Hi Mark and Timm, Mark, I second Timm's experiences and also can speak for the UWAN only. But,
the UWAN 7 is a very good eyepiece, especially if you consider...
Hi Walter, You said - "I just bought a used WO SCT single speed focuser for use on my 1981 era C8 Orange tube. It screws on then runs out of threads so I...
Thanks for your reply Gimmi, and thanks for the tip on the field flattener. I have a HX916 (soon to be upgraded to SXVF-H9) not sure how that compares to the...
Thanks for your reply Fred, I meant the Megrez 80 II ED Triplet as advertised here http://www.optcorp.com/product.aspx?pid=1-600-613-8151 , and the Megrez FD...
Thanks for your reply Timm, I did read that review and it was very informative but they actually state that they didn't have any photographic data, just...
The chip of the 350D is pretty large: about 15x22 mm. I would say that, without field flattener, the triplet cover a12 mm circle. The ED triplet IS NOT the...
Hi Alan, Don't feel bad about starting the thread, we all want to help you, and I have done as much analysis as I can from looking at pictures and asking...
Thanks Alan for the reply. I contacted WO by email and by phone. On the phone they were in the process of telling me where to send 10.00 and they would send an...
Hi Dave, I forgot to mention that I own a Megrez ED trilet APO and i'm very, very pleased with this little scope!!! Again, I only do visual observations, so I...
No. Most telescope triplets are not designed to reduce field curvature. One can design a triplet to reduce curvature,like in a Cooke triplet design but this...
The seeing was so-so tonight, and the sky a bit hazy with moisture, not a great night for observing but good enough to compare some of my eyepieces. At the ...
I hope not! M33 is faint, and I find it very hard to get an image of it. I decided to combine my frames from Oct 13, 04 from my AP130 f/8 @f/6 (25x180sec) ...
Thanks for the eyepiece review. I think I know what your answer will be but I would still like to ask to be sure. If you compare the 6mm Radian, 7.4 mm TV...
The AP image is crisper with higher contrast. I am not sure I can detect a difference between the Plossl and Radians. I think good plossl's are still a very ...
This problem has not been reported on the ZS105, which used the same tube. The foam baffle in the ZS110/105 are slightly different from the Megrez type and are...
Only the tube has been slightly redesigned. Dewshieldcap will be white. It now features a dual speed focuser included in the price like all the other...
