For the price the Hyp is a bargain, but the Vixen LVW is better.

I have 8, 13 and 21mm Hyperions and find them quite good. For high power planetary work I tend to use my super plossls which are a bit more contrasty. The only glitch with the Hyperion range is that they are not parfocal (but its only a minor thing). They are great value for money and well made.
I have just bought my first Panoptic eyepiece (27mm) and am interested to see how they compare (once the weather clears).
