The field curvature is so apparent that if you have the star at the center of your eyepiece in focus, only the inner 60 degrees is in focus. The outer 22 degrees are soft and progressively get worst.

But, you need to remember that I only paid $99 for it.

Happily the 100 degree 14mm is flat nearly completely to the edge. It did cost over 3 times more though.
