The XF 8.5mm is a wide angle 60 degrees and all of it clear and sharp - not many EPs out there that will give you that at f/4. What sort of mount do you have the scope on? Tracking? then no need for wide angle at high power (200x) but nice to have under 150x. You might find the stability of your mount leave something to be desired at high powers though.
