Are the Edmund RKE 8mm, 12mm 15mm and 21.5mm eyepieces parafocal or close to parafocal?

Jerry,

I have 2 sets. They are as perfectly parfocal as any set I've seen. I use them in sets and I use them for binoviewing. I have a 28.7mm and a 15mm that date to the early '80; they are exactly parfocal with my newer ones; I have a similar situation with Televue plossls of different generations that don't fair nearly as well as far as parfocalization. As a point of reference, they are as parfocal as my Brandon set and my TeleVue plossl same generation sets. Clear skies!
