    Hi Terry,

    you could see if you could borrow a Meade star diagonal or focusser and see if the thumbscrew from that fits yours – at least then you would have a screw to compare against.

    Most of these thumbscrews seem to be a bit non-standard to me… Though I must admit I have never measured one.

    From a chromatic aberration point of view probably not – but many prefer wider fields of view, and ‘better’ eyepieces may be better constructed, with better coatings.

    I usually use my TV plossls on my Lunt solar scope – i quite like the combination.

    Zoom eyepieces seem to be quite popular too, though I don’t have one.

    Sunny Skies, Callum
