Guilty as charged! I need to get that done. I have a Jason 313 60mm refractor; Sears 4454 80mm refractor; Celestron 152mm vx6 refractor, meade 8” LX and a meade 12” LX. I plan to use these eyepieces in all(I have a .965 to 1.25 diagonal for the smaller refractors).Lady Fraktor wrote: ↑Sun Mar 29, 2020 3:53 am What telescope will you be using them with?
More accurate advice can be given if you create a signature containing your equipment.
Sometimes you can replace the eyecups with different ones so that may not be an issue.

Re: Baader Morpheus.
I wonder why stores are listing it under the mount name now?
Anyway the Morpheus eyepieces will work well in it.

Re: Baader Morpheus.
Yes; it is basically a C6R. I’m not as familar with the C6R but not sure why they used the VX6 name now? You have me curious now so I will investigate. If I find out anything worthwhile I’ll post out. Optically I think it is essentially the same. Beautiful scope though; my first telescope was a small 50mm refractor from Kmart and I guess I’m a little partial to them. I do like my Schmidt-Lady Fraktor wrote: ↑Tue Apr 07, 2020 4:22 am I was trying to figure out who made the VX6 refractor... after searching I discovered it is a C6-R.

Re: Baader Morpheus.
Sounds great Ivan(the eyepiece not the cloud cover, lol). When your opportunity finally arises I would like to hear your impressions on it. 2 things motivated me to get these; the overall impressions I read and they were on sale. For the current price they seem yo be a tremendous bargain. I have to say this forum has really rekindled the motivation for observing and all things Astronomical. Thanks for allowing me to share my experiences and also answering questions. This is what makes any hobby great. Until we can get past this virus issue please stay safe.

Re: Baader Morpheus.
How good is the atmosphere in your location? With your telescopes a 4.5 mm eyepiece must give very high to enormous magnifications. You are somewhere in the Blue Mountains, right?
Happy observing!
