I have the 2" 30mm SuperView and enjoy using it to spot Galaxies. At f5 it has seagulls in the outer 30% FOV.

Don't bother if you want good widefield views, but if you just want to spot galaxies before you bump up to higher mags, then it is fine for that. It is a galaxy magnet!

I have found that used with the 2" GS 2x Barlow the seagulls vanish (gone to eat someone elses chips probably) but buying both defeats the purpose just to get great widefield views. Might as well pay for a better 2" widefield in the first place.
