Hi Mick,

I can give you this advice about the 41mm Panoptic.

The 40mm pentax XW is a lot better eyepiece for similar money. It has better contrast, light transmission, a more neutral colour tone and less tendency to kidney bean. In addition, it also smaller and lighter with a slightly larger FOV and its more comfortable to use.

A no brainer.

Cheers
John B
