I recently bought a 17mm Hyperion after sticking with the Orion Sirius Plossls that came with my XT10 for close to a year. My first reaction with the Hyperion was
. It's huge in comparison to the Plossls and I absolutely love it. The eye relief is amazing and I love the large eye lens (if that's the correct term.
I'm thinking of now getting a 8mm Hyperion to use as a planetary EP. I'm tired of almost melding my eye to the 10mm Plossl to view something.
Can anyone give me some feedback on how the 8mm performs and if it's as comfortable to use as the 17mm?
