Of all of my binoviewing pairs, the 24mm Pans are the ones that you would have to pry from my cold dead fingers. They are lightweight, beautiful field of view, sharp across the entire field, and excellent contrast. OK, the contrast thing is subjective I suppose, but suffice it to say that I am *very* happy with them.

Eddie,
I am new to binoviewing, and I bought a pair of 24mm Panoptic eyepieces to use with my Denk II. They reportedly have the largest true field possible in a 1.25" eyepiece. Seems as though TeleVue designed them specifically for binoviewing. The are relatively small, light weight, great field of view, and extremely sharp. In a binoviewer, they are, in a word, stunning. Truly a joy to behold.
I also bought 16mm Nagler Type 5s, and Nagler 11mm Type 6s. While these are magnificent too, the 24 Pans are truly the "must have" bino Eyepieces of Justice!
Clear Skies!
