I have the the 28mm RKE. I bought it because I had the 15mm and because it came up often on people's 10 best eyepieces of all time lists. Very often.

I have not used it a huge amount but its as described where the image tends to float and the eyepiece disappears.

I haven't tried the ES 24mm but it sounds like its similar to a Televue Panoptic which is a workhorse type of eyepiece.

An actual Panoptic would also be a good choice. A lot use the Panoptic 24, my workhorse in the past was the 19mm Panoptic. My go-to comfort lens.

None of these though are likely to come close the APM 30mm UFF.

But now we are talking about a $500 eyepiece.

There is also a Pentax XW 30mm which I regularly see recommended. Sometimes Pentax go on sale at Agenaoptics.com.

Greg.
