Thanks Steve

That confirms plenty of positive reviews I've read elsewhere.

The 22mm does appear to be perhaps the jewel of the LVW range. I took delivery of the 5mm on the weekend but haven't been able to put it through its paces yet coz of poor weather. I turned it briefly on Jupiter the other morning in the 8" newt and liked what I saw.

I've also heard very good things about the 13mm.

Yes Mat, Steve pretty much summed it up (Thanks Jano!!) after our ep shoot out at snake valley.

Hi all,

I LOVE my 9mm Nagler T6! But I also like the other babies in my case.

Clear skies,

Mathias

I have a pretty 'lowend' range of stuff - but my favourite one at the moment is a 10mm Antaeres plossl, that I got from astromart.

I also have a 30mm 2inch Widefield 'proxima' that is great - feels like It should be mounted to my camera :-)

Hi Ving
The UO 40 mm works well, I just have to slide it a few mm out of the focuser to get it to come to focus.
It is of course superb in the LX-90 but not that much better than the GSO 40mm 2", with the more forgiving focal ratio of the LX-90.
