When I was out observing last night using my favorite eyepiece -the XW10- and enjoying the comfort and fov so much, I felt saddened that I wasn't going to get the same again in the 14. I have to think long and hard whether to put up with field curviture on this or not (as a compromise).
Dave: Have you tried the XW14 on a fast scope (under 5?) I'd be interested to hear your view points. If you have used this ep on a fast scope, how much did the field curvature (stars bloating about 20-25% on edge of fov) annoy you? Thank you for your input.
John B: If I may bother you again, can I direct the same question to you as I have asked Dave? Thanks John.
Geoff: Hello! You helped me so much on my 5mm thread, and so pleased to see you return to help me yet again! Thank you.
Parracors unfortunately cost around $500 (yikes), that on top of buying a premium ep would be *gasp* too much money. Apparently (from the Cloudy Nights review), the Denks & Vixen LVW seem to be sharp to the edge, so I'm guessing it's a do-able thing. The tests were carried out on fast scopes.
Andrew: Thankyou for clarifying the eye cups on the Denks. for me.
