Hi Fox
Thanks for that. I have read a few one liner reviews on Anacortes that say "great eyepiece", but nothing in detail about what is "great". I'll be using a 10" dob, but from what I've seen of the Panoptic 24, I'm impressed, and won't be disappointed which ever Pan I go with. I was surprised at how natural and easy going the Pan 24 was, taking on an almost 3D effect compared with the Nagler.
The Radian is currently pressed into Saturn, Jupiter and Lunar viewing, although I also use it for looking at nebulas and galaxies. I can use this ep most viewing nights. Managed to see 6 of Saturn's moons under dark skies a few months ago. Can make out better cloud band details on Jupiter.
I'm refining my current eyepeice kit(s) so I will have the Radian, Nagler T6 13mm and hopefully a Panoptic 24mm/27mm as my travelling eyepeices for when I go to viewing nights. My other eyepeices will stay at home.
Cheers
