The view through the 28mm RKE is unlike any I have seen before and I bought mine simply to experience this view described by others as floating. You don’t get the feel as if you’re floating but instead the view itself appears to float in front of you. It isn’t so much the eye relief of the 28mm RKE although it has been calculated perfectly to match a combination of factors including design of the upper body holding the eye lens which consists of a thin wall beveled at such an angle to match the 45 deg apparent field.
It is as if the walls of the eyepiece simply disappear and the view is simply in front of you superimposed against the background peripheral view. The floating effect of this view is seen just as well the daylight as it is at night in a number of different ‘scope designs.
