I have both the 30 and the 15 mm Andrews UWA. Everyone is impressed by the 30, and rightly so. $149, you can't go wrong. Certainly much better than one-seventh the equivalent $1000 Nagler, but of course it isn't perfect. The main thing with both these EPs is that there is unacceptable amount of debris (paint flakes?) inside. I will disassemble and clean one day when I've feeling brave, but in reality it only matters on bright stuff, like the moon.
This forum does not allow language foul enough to describe the 15 mm. DO NOT GET IT!!!! I bought it thinking that someone had better be the guinea pig. Well, I was filleted on this one. Lee should ditch this EP from his range. I will sell it only so that someone else can satisfy a perverted curiosity and experience exactly how truly dreadful an eyepiece can be. It is the only eyepiece I have ever used that has negative eye relief. The build quality is not a patch on the 30. And there are seagulls from the very middle of the field. Make me an offer.
Get the 30, you won't regret it. But avoid the 15 like the plague.
Cheers,
Brian.
