It's Here !! 27 Pano EP

[Tamtarn]

We decided to take the advise given on the forum and get ourselves a 27mm Panoptic ( only our second premium EP )

Unfortunately we were told that it would take at least 6-8weeks to get one in OZ. So we purchased from the US. Ordered last Thursday arrived this morning Tuesday.
In time for Barb's Birthday on Sunday.
Can't wait to try it out....Hoping the clear weather promised this week does happen

As a fellow 27 Pan owner I must inform you that you have in your possesion one very fine piece of glass

Congrats guys, enjoy.

Let us know how it performs.

[Astroman (Andrew Wall)]

A review of the EP would be really good if you have time guys, I know myself is interested in an intermediate EP like that one

[matt]

Jealous? Me?

Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeesssssss!:lo l:

[Tamtarn]

Andrew we will post a review....But it won't be too technical we're not experienced enough for that.

We will just do the best we can in our own way.

The 27mm pano is just so nice to view through
You dont realise how nice until you go back to the inferior eyepiece you used to use (yuk !).

I hope you like it, coz if you dont you'll blame me and have to kick it to ving

Hi Barb and Dave,

Congrats on the purchase!
Was it considerable cheaper to purchase in the US and if so who was the supplier?

[Tamtarn]

Just going out for a session Geoff, you're in big trouble if we don't like it.

[Tamtarn]

Back inside for a few minutes freezing our toes off out there.

All we can say is WOW This is a great EP ......Contrast superb ....

Youre safe Geoff

Time for a cuppa and maybe a port then back out again. Will post a review tomorrow.

Best not to answer that in public forum. I made that mistake and I might have got the US dealer in trouble with Televue for selling outside the dealership area and undercutting the local distributor.
