WO Extremely Wide Field EP's VS TV Ethos (comparison of quality VS price)

[BJunge]

Hi, I see WO have EP's with fields comparing to TV's Ethos line.

Does anyone use/own a WO EWF and how has your experience been and have you had the opportunity to compare it to an equivalent TV Ethos?

The price of the WO is so little in comparison, that worries me that the quality may be of similar disparity....

Many thanks for your experienced input.

I have a complete of WO XWA, which is quite a feat as the numbers issued were small and they are now discontinued. Unfortunately, I cant provide anything by way of a reliable report as my vision is cactus. When purchasing these eyepieces I spoke with William, the W in William Optics. The eyepieces are being sold below cost, he is clearing them out and he will not be issuing them again, what you see is what you get!
My vision may be awful but I can offer this.... the fields of view are simply breathtaking. My previous fav was the 35mm Panoptic, the 10mm XWA (rare as rocking horse poo) is like taking the field of view of the TV and adding massive fine detail. You really need to experience the eyepiece.
These are the same eyepieces as those offered by Stellarvue the 100-110 DEGREE OPTIMUS EYEPIECES the eyepieces that won Hot Product 2017. Reading the more extensive reviews on Stellarvue product will provide you with the detail you need.
Stellarvue has a special on the full set x4 eyepieces @ $1,200 US with carrying case, a bargain, a definite buy!

I forgot to mention, these are REALLY heavy eyepieces XWA 20mm is 1.2kg in weight! Great for large scopes or Refractors, unsuitable for small scopes.
