What scope?

I have nopt used the WO SPL eyepieces but I do have a couple of the TMB/Burgess eyepieces (6 and 8 mm)...While they are not quite in the same league as Pentax/Televue (etc.) they are not in the same price band either.

I believe that they represent good value for money. I got mine on sale 3 for the price of 2...They have ample eye relief, nice size FOV and my samples had a good fit and finish...I think they stand up pretty well compared to plossls in terms of views with better eye relief in the lower focal lengths.

Do be careful as there are a few versions out in the market some a bit better than others in terms of internal reflections...some of the earliest version had some internal reflections (from memory)...
