The other is Edmunds Optics 28mm RKE. I got this from Edmunds direct and I
paid Singapore $90 + shipping.

If you read the thread all time favourite 10 eyepieces I was amazed to see how often the 28mm RKE was listed. I tried mine out last week and was surprised by how nice it was. 45 degree field of view but at 28mm its quite a wide view.

Its the 28mm RKE with its seemingly half meter of eye relief that creates an effect that the image is floating above the eyepiece itself. Its a lot of fun but no body is making any serious observations with it.
