Chris,
Your thread was a great read. Thankyou. I emailed Frontier Optics today for a price on both the WX & the XF, as there are no prices shown on-line. The XF is right within my budget! But...

Originally I was after anything over 50mm fov, but now that I'm more informed, I would prefer around 68-70 fov. I have a 68 fov 15mm- it's just comfortable after barlowing. It's just too hard on a dob anything under, as I want this ep to study with, so I need my view on things for as long as possible.
What would my FOV be with a 10mm, 60 fov, barlowed? I will give it thought though I think i'm going backwards. ?

Anyone? What's the difference between the XF & WX apart from 10 deg fov difference, 2mm less eye relief, and $200 more? They don't give much info on-line.:question :
