Hi James, and welcome also.
A 19mm Panoptic is a razor sharp ep, from personal experience. It has a wide enough
field and barlows extremely well, with even a bintel ED barlow.
I have used this combo on a variety of objects, planetary and globs for
instance, in different scopes, and have never been dissapointed.
Hope this helps in making your choice!
Cheers bigjoe.
