What's you're current setup looking like rn? Those televue EP's are based. I had APM XWA lenses on backorder since late December and the last one is being delivered tomorrow, can't wait. In the mean time I was working on Kilner goggles and a setup to use them for photography as well, so now I have tons of filters to play with. Does turning down the gain help with the scintillation in the photos? I can't wait to see the new pics you teased, I'm sure they are amazing. Please post more when you have time!

Recently picked up a 10" dobsonian and am learning as I go.  

I've been using my PVS-14 for locating, but without a mount it's tough to view through the scpope.  Just ordered a TNV-1413 fonemate so this should be fun

Still reading up on which to use.  I have a few, Celstron that came with the scope.  Researching now - Televue 55mm Plossl is discussed on the Tele vue site - any suggestions?

The 55mm works very well and will perform great with your DOB. Are you gonna run a  2" instead of 1.25? I couldn't tell by the pic with my phone...

It’s a 2”.

I had the 7.5mm out this morning and once I got the Telrad dialed in, Jupiter was amazing. Could easily see the bands and 2 moons.
Once the NV mount shows up we will point towards Sagittarius and look for some deep sky objects

Minor nit: that's not the Lagoon Nebula but the Cat's Paw Nebula (NGC 6334).

This is the Lagoon Nebula (aka Messier 8), taken by Mike Lockwood with an L3 unfilmed TNV-14:
