the vixen does provide nice views with the limitd fov, there are similar ep's lke it around for cheaper. you may want to try the cheap seben zoom to see if zooms are for you. the baader has a wider fov at the long end -but then again most don't use zooms at the 24mm end, this
ep would also be a great starter zoom, sheldon the seler is also great to deal with -that ep is actually from a spotter scope -& usually sells 100+
