Trying New 16X eyepiece. What do you think.

Recieved the new eyepiece yesterday, I tried it in the backyard this morning, here is the result. Taken from approx 32ft. What do you think. Ernie

That's a nice shot Ernie, especially in the difficult lighting conditions. Well done mate.

best wishes

Good shot Ernie, the lower mag certainly lets a lot more light in.

Thanks John, Paul, yes it has made a big difference from the 20-60 zoom, but still not able to get the whole subject in the frame, so I am thinking of trying 12Xmag, this is of course for my backyard, which just allows me to within the minimum focus area. I am happy with the setup, I rebuilt my bracket, in aluminium this time, instead of steel, still very stable and so much lighter. Ernie
