My 14mm delos is the best mid-mag ranged eyepiece I have ever looked through. It's better then the Naglers I've looked through, sharper, flat field , coating etc etc. But, I'm not going to say for a second its any better then my Pentax XW10 (although its better then the XW14 I've looked through) but, it's as good as. Praise doesn't get any higher then that.

It's also easily available to buy in Australia at actually better prices then the US. Unlike Denk's which only come up on the used market about as often as a Venus transit.

Morton your review was with smallish refractors interesting indeed,. But, you should see how they perform in a fast 12"+ at a dark sky site. Absolutely staggering!

Adrian,
Slightly off topic but where does the ES 14 100 degree fit in with the other 14mm eyepieces?
Anyone who wants a Denk 14 can get one, or a pair direct from the Denk site. Took a month to get mine last year.

I'd be interested in the answer to this as well, although I'm pretty sure I don't need a 100º eyepiece as 82º is more than wide enough for me.

Looking back at my original post, it's ironic to note that I ended up not keeping any Naglers in the end! My favourite eyepieces are definitely the Delos 14mm and Pentax XW 10mm. Everything looks great through them.
