My Pentax collection is now complete
I couldn't wait any longer, I have just received my final addition to my Pentax family. I am the proud owner of an XW-30. This will give a magnification of 33 and an exit pupil of a tad over 6mm, any more would risk throwing light away. FOV of around 2 full degrees...that's about 4 Moons across. I just need a clear night to test it.
First impressions are, as with all the others...impressive. Packaging is excellent, finish is the expected quality. Can't say much about the optics yet except that looking through it appears almost like there is nothing in there! It is not quite as big as a similar Nagler, but still pretty massive...I just hope when I slide it into the scope, it doesn't point to the ground under the weight.
Now I just need a case to put them into....good thing Father's Day is coming up....
