Celestron Ultima 70* Eyepiece's

Post by Roy Stewart » Mon Oct 04, 2010 3:47 pm

Hey guy's.

I was thinking about getting the Ultima 70* eyepieces and I was wondering if any1 would let me know if there's anything better for around the same price or would they get the Ultima. Any advice would be helpful.

Cheers Roy. :? :? :D
