I plan to be at Fiddletown Saturday night. I'll try to find my pair of 26mm Plossls. Carpe Noctem, Shneor ... From: Dennis Beckley Date: 2/28/05 11:52 pm To:...
Thanks Shneor. Dennis ... http://us.click.yahoo.com/EA3HyD/3MnJAA/79vVAA/2.XolB/TM ... __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired...
Hi Dennis, I have been binoviewing for almost two years now. First with a Lumicon bino and now a Denk. The best views I've had were with eyepices I don't own!...
For a little cloudy sky entertainment, I thought this was very interesting. http://www.space.com/scienceastronomy/proto_stars_050301.html Hope for clearing WB*...
... Rashad, what are some of the features you like on the Denk which were not on the Lumicon? Would you recommend a Denk over other binoviewers you've used?...
Hi Rashad, Good to hear from you again. I didn't realize that you had moved up to a NightSky 16 with a ServoCat tracking system. Darrell Lee in Benicia just...
IMO the Denks standard is equal to the binos from Telvue, the Denk II's are almost as good as the AP binos. Denkmeier has been very inovative regarding...
I own a genuine TeleVue Binovue and a pair of TeleVue 8-24mm Click-Stop zooms for it. They're total junk compared to just about every other one I've compared...
What type of telescope are you using them in. Ive noticed the Televue products seem to match best with televue scopes more so than with any other product. ... ...
Let's see..... I've used them in my 30" Starmaster, 22" Starmaster, 18" Obsession, 12" LX-200, TV-85, TV-101 and a home built 8" dob, not to mention a few...
I think that TV eyepieces are all around the best choice for the big dobs. They show much less coma than so many other out there. I'm not saying that they are...
I have the Denk standard, which I really like. But Siebert produces a binoviewer that takes 2" eyepieces and has a 45mm aperture. At around $1,200 that's a bit...
i use my Denk (standard) in a 22" f/4 newt (with 2" OCS). Shneor ... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ** Shneor...
I like my Naglers but not so much the smaller 1.25" models. I enjoy all the Televue 2" eyepeices best. Im just not impressed overall with smaller 1.25"...
HI JIM...You should give the Seibert bino's a try...Harry actually helped Dinkmeyer in development with there optical designs and the 2" version seemed to be a...
I use to like my little Mustang GT till I got a chance to drive my bosses New Corvette, so I guess that makes sence. ... Starmaster, 18" ... to mention ... ...
A lot of my preference for Shneor's Denk 1 Bino's (I stand corrected about them being Denk II's) has to do with eye comfort. The Denks were much easier for my...
I'm glad you wrote this, Jim. I was considering a purchase of these very same eyepieces. I wanted them because I thought it would save me from having to...
Hey Bill, I bought mine back in 01, so you might check with TV and see if they have come up with a parfocal version since then. I also understand that these ...
Hi Jim, I was just about to suggest that you have your TV bino collimated, Michelle has the TV binos and the views are very good. As far as the TV click stop...
I think the only parfocal zooms you can get from TV are the 3-6mm and the 2-4mm. These were designed for fast refractors mainly, the downside is the expense...
Hi All, Looks as if the weather predictors are now all in general agreement about Saturday night. MOSTLY CLEAR!!! Hooray! It's Fiddletown for me! ETA 5pm....
It's not the mud, it's the ruts.. Shneor ... From: ram1368 Date: 3/3/05 3:00 pm To: tac-sac@yahoogroups.com Subj: [tac-sac] Re: Saturday Night for Me! ...
... I'd be happy to expose that 16" beauty of yours to some photons if you'd like. I mean, seeing how you have to work and all, it's the least I can do. :) ...
... Good point, Shneor. We should each bring a bag of gravel and dump it in the worst ruts on the hill portion. If 10-12 of us went observing that would...
My first view through the Denk bino & 24mm Pans was at shingletown two years ago. I wanted to check out Tom Osypowski's new 24" aluminum dob. I walked up to...
