Anyone directly compare these two? Deciding on which one to get for an F/10 Mak-Cass.

In the "Eyepieces" forum, I posed a similar question not too long ago, although I was more interested in the 16mm range in that discussion.

The consensus seems to be that the Konigs give sharper images. However, they have quite short eye relief at the shorter focal lengths (esp. the 16mm, which I can say does give great views AND has wicked short eye relief). At the 24/25mm level, eye relief probably won't be an issue. At f10, both should have reasonably good edge of field.
