I have done quite a bit of reading comparing its performance with the 35 Panoptic, and from what I understand, the 31 Nagler has noticeably better brightness and contrast side by side.

Having compared the 35Pan and the 31Nagler side by side this appears to be correct. I was surprised that the 31 is so much better. The TFOV is marginally wider, and the contrast and sharpness really stands out.

But then the 35Pan is a $US380 eyepiece and the 31N is $US640, so this is what you would expect.

The 31 Nagler is probably one of the best in that range, alongside the 17T4.
