Basically I am asking the weath of knowledge out there is what are best eyepiece matches for the Scoptronix Digi-T adapters? I know about the Scoptronix SWAs and Maxview, but what about the Pans and others that are made by TV, U.O., Meade (besides SPssmile, Vixen, Tak, etc?
Thanks for your knowledge;^)
Pics would be nice too...

In order to use the Digi-T adapter, you have to have an EP that has a removable rubber eyecup - not the slide on kind that come with the UO HD Ortho's and Celestron Ultima's, but the kind with a groove that's cut in the top of the EP to hold the eyecup on. This is where the adapter ring attaches.

I've successfully used Orion Sirius EP's, Antares W70 EP's, and Coronado CEMAX EP's with my Olympus C-3000 and Digi-T adapter. So, I think that any EP with a similar groove will work. ScopeTronix has a list of compatible EP's on their website, but it's by no means complete.
