Really enjoyed Bill's review here, especially..
Where he advises us on ..
NEVER assuming something you are
seeing is from the eyepiece(s) being tested, one needs to switch out all components in the optical chain, including Diagonals etc; and repeat tests using both eyes!

A lot of us have probably been guilty of doing just that when testing EPs...great advice indeed!

Producing a multi element widefield with very low scatter , high contrast, flat field, and as sharp as this appears to be, is no mean feat; essential for a clean view of Doubles with faint companions, and the Planets.

Sounds like they would make a very useful EP set for those abovementioned objects, and DSOs, especially in a non tracking Dob or similar.
