hi i ihink that the es is similar to the pan,with the exception it is bigger and heavier, the optics are good with colour detection of red and yellow stars being more prominent than in the pan.....i put this down to coating differences with that of the nagler, which in my opinion allows more light transmission and thus the image is brighter taking away some of the hue of the colour in those stars.and for the price it is a very good ep, as are the es100 eps of which i also have a couple and as i have said on other posts on iis compared to the ethos range they perform very well...hope that helps......but i would prefer the 31 nag now that i have made the comparison,it has the better field of view by far
