This eyepiece will only appeal to a certain few.
Bought new for $850.00
As there is no adaptor at present to utilise this premium wide angle zoom in a 1.25'' diagonal I took the unprecedented step, after researching extensively on Cloudy Nights and else where to carefully file off the flanges, and reduce the diameter of the barrel. This eyepiece will now fit a 1.25" diagonal and now becomes I believe the best zoom lens on the market. Both for Astro and day time use. Weights in at 295g.
In doing the above I have voided the warranty, but if one was looking for the very best in a zoom wide angle eyepiece, to use in a premium Astro scope, then this would be it.
There are reviews, praising and comparing the Swarovski to Leica. Also it stays wide angle right thru the zoom range, unlike the Baader. Google it all up if its of interest.
