I have been thinking about this myself. I thought it was interesting that the Bintel guys as god as recommended the 24mm Panoptic over a 31mm Nagler.

I am hanging out for the largest field I can squeze into one eyepiece (With a 9.25" F10 Celestron) and have been tossing up on if the higher power of the Panoptic would be of more value (Along with still being a 1.25") to me or if the TFOV of the Nagler might swing it enough to be worth saving up for.

I have an 11MM Nagler T6 and the only things I can fault with it is that it is quite sensitive to eye position or you get blackouts and kidney beaning (And it is almost unuseable in daylight with a constricted pupil as a result) and the eye relief is a bit tight, leading to oil from my eyelashes on the last element. You also see your own eyelashes and eyebrows if you are not careful!
