Paracorr

I used a Paracorr for the first time last night in my 10" f/5 dob. I was expecting a subtle improvement after reading about this device but the improvement was very obvious. The edge of field was cleaned up in both the 22 Nagler and Pentax XW14, to the point where I now have no thoughts of selling the XW14mm. I put the XW in after using the Nagler at Paracorr setting 5 and the view was not good, but changing to setting 1 fixed that.

It's hard to draw conclusions after just one observing session, but the Paracorr looks like it will be staying in my eyepiece collection.

I'm curious to hear what setting others use with the XW14 and Paracorr?
