Having only recently started taking a serious interest in this hobby, I spent many a hours reviewing posts and debating on what eyepieces to get.
I prefer to buy a set (all same brand) and in one hit. I considered all options - TV, ES, Vixen, and Pentax.
The posts that influenced my decision the most were from Ausastronomer (John) and Wavytone.
Finally settled in the Vixen LVW due to price of the Pentax XW's in Australia, and picked up a set of these a couple of months ago from Steve at Astro Shop in QLD.
Then when I saw this thread about the Pentax XW's being on special on Amazon Japan, i couldn't resist and ended up ordering the entire line.
Pictured is the LVW set, and the Pentax XW set minus the 5mm. It shipped late so ETA is Tue 10th May!!
Figured one range can be my "travel" range for use with the 80mm and the other will be used with my SCT.
cheers
