I was out at 2am this morning looking at Europa's shadow and moon transit , just above the GRS , using my 13mm T1 and it was awsome in my new 2415mm f/l , 210mm diameter scope ,, this eyepiece / scope combo is really good at 185x ,, . . hit the sack at 4am , great eyepiece and awsome viewing .

I had all the originals many years ago , Brian. IMHO, the new ones produce just as good an image. I think the reduction in size has been mostly brought about by the development of newer, more exotic glass types.
