Thanks Paul, yes the ES 30mm spends most time in too I find. 11mm ES 82 a close second (use two in my bino's too and that is a very fine combo). Find that my TV 32mm plossl (be it standalone or with barlow) certainly brings out more detail than the ES 30mm, albeit at a much smaller AFOV of course. Reckon the ES30mm with a reducer gives almost 1.3 deg, and even with vignetting is a lot nicer than my GSO 42mm which is around 1.2 deg by looks. Having tried a 100 degree, love the lack of noticeable fieldstop, but it sure will cost some $ by looks!

Question though, do you find with you 9.25 that focusing is a little harder with the ES30mm to get in focus across the field? As in, to sharpen up the edge you got turn a good quarter turn which brings center out of focus a bit? Can normally find a good middle ground, or just move a bright object out of center a bit to give a good view, but just wondering if just me?
