Hi everyone. While at last night's star party in Roxbury I noticed one
of my eyepieces, a 10mm Plossl, had suddenly started delivering a
pretty bad image. Figuring it was just dew, I stuffed it back into my
box. This morning I discovered quite a bit of foreign material stuck to
the lens. I suspect it came into contact with one of the lollipops
which were handed out at the event.
Now it seems to me this eyepiece will require a little bit more
attention than "use lifting strokes with a camel hair brush," which I'm
reading everywhere online. Can anyone help me with this? Failing that,
has anybody upgraded their collection recently and have a few Plossls I
could buy for a few bucks? I've been meaning expand mine anyway...
Thanks,
Ross
