I did a search of your gallery for ETX-90 images, and I am encouraged. I have now tried a few shots with the 90˚ mirror diagonal instead of the 45˚ prism, and I can see the advantages. If nothing else, the camera sits balanced on the eyepiece a lot easier than it did when it was cantilevered off the prism.I have ordered the Orion 35mm Ultrascopic, which will give 36X. I'm looking forward to experimenting with this eyepiece on the star diagonal. Its eye relief of 25mm may even allow some shots with my Canon G9.</blockquote>
