Very happy with the entire ES line in my F5. I've tried the 6.7 and 8.8 and really sharp all the way, nice flat field and generally excellent in a fast scope. I haven't tried the 16mm but have read good reports. I've used the 9mm and 14mm 100 degree series as well and wow. I've never looked through an Ethos but many respected CN reviewers cannot tell the difference between HHS 13mm Ethos and the 14mm 100 degree ES. Some take issue with the tight eye relief but I don't have any issue at all.
The only ordinary review on the 82 ES range is ghat the 14mm is very soft in the outer 50% of the view, others say it's ok in a fast dob - I've never used the 14mm 82 degree though.
