Commenting on filters,...... I think a broadband filter will be a better option. Because, specialize filter the narrowband type eg. o-3 filter, is limited to nebula only, u can't seem to use it on galaxy or clusters, thus not so versatile. :wink: 8). Broadband filter can improve ur seeing generally under bright sky conditions. U say u get car sick, I think bcos, u are concentrating too hard to peer through the eps, besides u are using a scope, thus with some magnification, it will be like, a person with myopia being given a too high power glasses, thus u gat dizzy, the feeling is the same. :wink: :lol: :) 8)
