I have one. I bought it last year when the dollar was much better (but its still expensive). I wanted to move to a widefield scope for imaging after having a Meade LX200 and various refractors and playing with field flatteners etc. So I bought this and a G11.

I don't look through it, only use it for imaging (it does give spectacular views though, very contrasty and sharp).

It is:

1. Flat - edge to edge
2. Optically perfect - at least as far as I can determine
3. Beautifully made overall. Sometimes I just look at it

I am very very happy with it. I could have gotten similar results for less I imagine, but there you go.

Here's a LUM set I took of the HH (no colour yet and low res with no cal)

Cheers
Dan
