I just got mine yesterday (and it was clear!). Mine is not double stacked but I did do some quick comparisons. Coronado ran out of the Kellners, so they sent a 12mm CEMAX instead, needless to say I didn't argue! But in a nutshell I compared the CEMAX, a 15mm Meade SPL, and my 13mm Nagler (Type 6). The CEMAX won hands down. The 15mm SPL was behind it and the 13mm Nagler was the worst. Seems the wide FOV combined with the narrower FOV on the PST made it very uncomfortable to use, your eye had to be positioned perfectly. The CEMAX just seems to be a perfect fit. I'd be interested to hear how it compares to something like a radian....

Best of luck. I've tried scanning both the pictures (moderate luck) as well as the negatives (not working out well). I think my next attempt may to get a picture CD included with the developing, that was I can take my scanning element right out of the pictures. I just can't get the details I'd like out of scanning...
