All I can say about receiving these in the mail is WOW !!!!...Lookin' purty every time I look at 'em !!!! lol !!!

It will be even better when I plop them into the focuser, (hopefully tonight), for a quick peek.

Now I will have to give 2 reports!!!!...This one, and of course the Mighty Speers Waler Zoom !!! ...I'm gonna go back to my eyepiece case and put my bib on again.

I also got a Meade series 4000 14m UWA in the mail today!!!!...I ended up selling one about three weeks ago realizing after how stupid it was to let go of such a great eyepiece, and bought another one !!!!

with the digiscope:

it won't take the 2" ultra wide. The unit needs to clamp onto the eyepiece. What width would the meades, naglers ultra wides, panoptics be where i could try and clamp? Also if i have to clamp further down the eyepiece, what would be the distances?

It might end up being that i have viewing eyepieces (wide angle) and imaging eyepieces (radian??)???

I got the 24mm panoptic and it is a great lens, I am sure that you will really enjoy it. I have looked through the 14 also and it performs very well also. Good acquisitions.
