Which 8-8.5mm eyepiece would you choose for a 12" Reflector. I've narrowed it down to either the Pentax XF 8.5mm or the Orion Stratus 8mm.
I like the eye relief of both, the size of the Pentax and the AFOV of the Orion?
Opinions and suggestion welcomed.

I recently purchased over the weekend both Baadar and Hyperion eyepieces and think they're great. I don't know what the Pentax is like though...
Whilst the coating on the Hyperion look alot better, i found (from brief testing last night) in practise make very little difference. I may be wrong. Be warned though these eyepieces are big, and you will need counterweights ( It tilts my 10" truss).
