Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Orion 12.5mm Illuminated Reticle Plossl Telescope Eyepiece
Customer Review: Great for Alignment...
Summary: 5 Stars
Using this with my Orion SkyView Pro 8 and it makes the alignment procedure MUCH easier than trying to estimate the centering of alignment stars. It's really nice to have the double reticle lines so you can put the center box around the target star. Of course stars move REALLY quickly but once you learn to use the hand controller without looking at it it's pretty easy to click enter at just the right moment. Before I had this eyepiece my alignments were pretty poor and now I'm able to get dead on the target star which makes my goto's dead accurate, pretty amazing. As others have said, even on the lowest setting it's pretty bright, I'm going to try a piece of paper in the hole like others have mentioned, should make this eyepiece even better.
