Nagler 3-6mm Zoom?

Does anybody out there own this? I'm looking for a high magnification eyepiece to use with my 100mm ED (currently the 8mm Radian is as high as I go - around 120x). But... $600 is a lot of money...

The 3-6mm zoom is probably too much for the 100mm (giving me 150-300x) but I'd be interested in feedback, and possible high power alternatives.

You could try an orthoscopic if you can handle the short eye relief and have a tracking mount. They come in 4,5,6,7 mm and up

There is an Australian supplier, Frontier, who quoted me $99 + $7 shipping.

Hmm, that beats $600 from Bintel I'll do some reading up and perhaps drop them a line.
