Yes but still narrow enough to be a concern with a dob. I didnt mention fov wrt orthos as I assumed it to be well known and a given.

FWIW I think pretty much all of the specialist planetary eps are on the small side for fov. TMB monos, brandons, orthos, tak LE etc.

I reckon the tmb planetary will perform well enough in an f8 scope, and are sharp and comfortable to use.
