There is a much better alternative for planetary observing, binoviewing. I have a 5 XO, great eyepiece, but I see more using my Abbe Orthos and Denk bino viewer.

I only took up bino viewing about 3 years ago, but I've been converted. Everything in the Solar System just looks so much better. For deep sky, I still prefer single eyepieces.

If you are looking for a good quality, cheaper alternative to the 5 XO, then the Fujiyama Ortho is value for money.
