Custer Program: What Eyepieces Should I Buy
WHAT EYEPIECES SHOULD I BUY
with Rich Huber
Rich presented a great program on eyepieces and what their basic characteristics are including
features of some of the common eyepieces such as Barlow Lenses. Design,
construction and naming conventions were discussed as well as
recommendations for eyepieces based on price, quality, and use. Very informative!
