Owner of Celestron C102HD Refractor. 80% planetary viewing & 20% deep space viewing. Disregarding cost, should I purchase 5mm orthoscopic or 5.2mm Pentax ? I already own Pentax 7mm and love it. My dilemma stems from advertisement stating that no other eyepieces can compare with an orthoscopic for planetary viewing. Advice or comments ........
