Andrew, many thanks for that link - it was well written. Interesting that the Denkmeir is tested against the Pentax XW, Nagler T6 & Ethos. More interesting, that the XW came last because it failed in the field curvature test. Ethos being the winner. I did forget that the televues tended to have a warmer colour. For this reason, I had backed away from them previously as I tend to prefer neutral.

Chris, from my previous research when buying my LVW, it was said that the Baaders were trying to imitate the LVW's and are indeed a worthy contender. It would be interesting to hear input from others as well on the Baaders at the same f/ratio as my scope. A brand new Baader I think sells for $250 compared to $450 for the LVW (tho overseas, same price as Baader). If I had to chose between either, I would go with the LVW though; purley because I own one and am familiar with it's performance.
