Forget about the 2inch function of this EP, to get this to work you need to unscrew the bottom Smythe element, and then the field curvature is huge. This is a marketing tactic from Baader (unless you're happy with field curvature).
Use these EP's in the 1.25inch mode, they work very well for the money when used correctly even in an f5 scope. I am sure you must be placing them in the focuser via the 2inch section with the 1.25inch section still attached, you will not get an image. Make sure you use the adapter in the focuser for 1.25inch mode, you will love the views, they will definately come to focus.
