Looking for Nagler 31mm for eyepiece comparison

Post by rlow »

Hi everyone

I am looking for Nagler 31mm and any other 28-32mm eyepiece to conduct side-by-side eyepiece comparisons.

Anyone who is able to loan for a couple of days, or bring and join me for testing, kindly let me know by posting here or send me a PM. Comments and feedback are welcome too.

Thank you for reading this.

I have a 32mm Televue Plossl if you want to test, though it will the smallest of the pack. Ha.
