I've read that they are the bee knee's, at the same time if your impressed with wide views you'll keep the TMB but if you like resolution UO HD are prefered, this is what I've been able to decipher from all text I've read. I live in good ship number 2---resolution wins. But that 3 for 2 is the carrot I can't resist.
Has anyone used the elite plossls do they hold up in good company. I had a look at the celestron version it had nice colour correction, In a perfect world I would have left with a full collection of MASUYAMAS not just the 2" diagonal I bought recently-My wallet was $2500+ short.(don't know were it went?) I'll keep using my 10mm long eye relief plossl with 1.5 barlow for star slitting, it works very well. But I would like a 7mm and 12/15mm parfocal pair mainly because of the cassigrain but it allows for quick comparison of magnifications (detail lost at high mag due to seeing conditions--but you still go there)
I want to make an educated decision and avoid collecting unused eyepieces. I have a pair of par focal UWA Meade 5000's 14mm and 4.7mm they work well for wide field and dso, planets cast up lots of internal reflections.
