How do I say this...don't look through a 100 degree eyepiece unless you are prepared to buy one.

I say the above in jest but they can become addictive...when I first moved from plossls to Naglers I though WOW!...When I first looked through a 100 degree eyepiece I said WOW Again.

For some, 100 degrees is "too much" to utilize but I really enjoyed it.

I do not yet own any Ethos or Explore Scientific eyepieces (yet) but I have looked through both...they are impressive (to me) and in an undriven Dobsonian mounted Reflector I felt they were an impressive combination. The only knock I'd put on them is the size and weight of them...they are big!

Are they "worth" the price???...I can't answer that for you.

They are not my next planned purchases...but at some point I suspect that I will own them when I next "reshuffle" my eyepiece line-up.

As always, if you can please try before you buy either at the shop or at a viewing night.
