LV, NLV or LVW...

If your budget is on a diet, the Vixen LV's (hard to find now) or NLV are good. If you can afford a better set though, a set of LVW will still have you heaps compared to Naglers and I really like the eyerelief.

I have the LVW 8, 13 and 22 and also a 30mm NLVW (rare beast, it's new), they are excellent. I also have a set of LV's: 4, 6 10, 15 and 25, I use these on occasions when I don't want to pull out the LVW's.

If you go LVW, though be sure you want to - the weight of these is so much more than smaller eyepieces (like the LV) that either you balance the scope for the LVW's and stick to them for the night, or balance for the LV's (or otehr small eyepieces) and stick to them.
