What eye piece coma corrector would you reccomend for your 20" F/L 3.3 scope? I'm looking at a Tele Vue Paracorr Type 2 (VIP-2010).

Re: Eye piece coma corrector
I always recommend the Paracorr Type 2, as you suggested. I've used it on telescopes down to f/3.0 and it gives an amazing improvement to the coma. Especially if you are using wide-angle eyepieces, it is spectacular!

Hi Gordon,
After reviewing the spec's on the T.V. Paracorr Type 2, I see it has a built in 15% barlow effect. That bumps your F/L 3.3 up to F/L 3.8 without having to use another step. I'm I looking at that correctly? If so Nice!

That's right. The Paracorr adds just a bit to your focal length. -Gordon
