Keep in mind also that picture quality of telescope eyepieces can be affected by the design of the eyepiece; Huygens eyepieces can generate chromatic aberrations, Erfle eyepieces can produce some ghost images, & Plossl eyepieces tend to have some astigmatism around the edges of the picture. That why it is better to understand the limits of each design & what kind of work each design is suited to.
