Hi Ed,

My actual first-light report was daytime at Andrews' Shop, and the report was "no gunk"

I might just do that first-light report tho'.

I have two refractors (well 3 but I'm about to put the middle-sized one up for sale as part of my ruthless astronomy clean-out). The Hyperion Zoom was for my little travel setup (WO ZS80FD plus zoom plus 3x barlow plus Panoptic 27), so that would be the kit for the report. However, i'm now wondering also about my ZS80FD and might take a couple of known-quantity eyepieces on my first holiday with it to see how the telescope stacks up too. I also have a bigger higher-end 130mm APO which would be the real test of this eyepiece, but that might have to wait until next year... which isn't long is it?

cheers
John
