Which to buy Pentax 10mm or Panoptic 24mm

Hi All,

Ok, I know majority of people will advise against buying any eyepieces on your new scope and use the ones you get. I'm planning to get the 12" LB and I know it comes with the 26mm Meade.

I also have a set of GSO plossls (courtesy IIS astrocamp won by my cousin, Mike).

I'll use those for awhile and develop my taste. However all that aside, I want to view planetary, DSOs and the moon. The 2 eyepieces are probably different across the spectrum.

Which eyepiece would you buy between the above 2 as your 1st premium eyepiece.

Thanks for all your comments. I will savior each one of them

Astigmatism, eye relief etc are not an issue for me as yet.

NB: I figure b4 the $AUD heads south and I have a source that can get it for me free shipping I could save some $.

Cheers Norm
