Mike,

I owned the 5mm version of this eyepiece for quite a while (over a year) and was pretty impressed with it for the price, I have seen a lot more expensive eyepieces than this that didn't perform near as well. Unfortunately this situation probably reflects the typical QC of Synta where there is a lot of variation in quality with identical product lines. I am pretty confident in saying "you got a bad one" but of course that doesn't do the next person that "gets a bad one" any good either.
