Thanks Peter for sharing your experience.

I seemed to have come to a similar conclusion to Suzy about the Pentax XW series. They get very good reviews and in the USA they are $260 to $300 new, and $200+ used on astromart.com. However you think they may be a bit tricky to use? Aargh! I thought I had a winner!

Anyways, I appreciate your list of EPs. Are you not concerned about keeping the EPs parfocal? I thought this would be a good advantage in not having to refocus everytime you switch EP.

Another question, will the Pentax XWs fit directly in a 2" diagonal? Or do you have to use a 1.25" adaptor?

Cheers

James
