Shaun , such a great query and the replies have all been great , thanks guys for these .
I was in your boat about 5 years ago when ES were starting to make in-roads into The TV 'Niche' market but sadly I had just grabbed a TV 22mm Panoptic here in the classifieds ( best eyepiece I own ) and sorry to say that was the beginning of the end for me as I have sold off all my other eyepieces over the years , just like MattT did , and apart from 2 that I still have , these being a Celestron LX Axiom 31mm and 40mm AT Titan all my eyepieces are now TV's starting with a full Radian set of 3mm-18mm , Pans 19mm-27mm and Naglers 9mm-20mm all awsome eyepieces and the lot grabbed here from IIS's classifieds over 5+ years of being "Johnny on the spot" and at great prices , but you have to be quick getting some
as they are very popular .
On this I have just PM'd Castony and hopefully a 6.7mm ES will be on its way to me and rest assured it will be tested plenty against probably the Radians of close FL and my 9mm Nagler in all my scopes , I look forward to testing this eyepiece and I will post the results .
I know ES are the best value on the market today , but IMHO for a little ( lot
) more TV;s especially 2nd hand these take a lot to beat .
Here is my collection of that 'Green Stripe' in its early days , probably after 2 years or so , but good things do take time , especially those sweet 19 , 22 and 24mm Panoptics
or my 12 or 18mm Radian's ? Telvue's do it or me sorry to say .
My 5c.
Brian.
