Rod,
Thanks for the review. I enjoyed the read in spite of both eyepiece and language purists.


Do you think the 1mm difference in focal length had any perceptible impact? For example, I would expect the short FL to reveal slightly fainter objects and to be slightly more contrasty with a blacker sky. This doesn't appear to be the case as the 10mm Ethos seems to perform a bit better on Jupiter. Thoughts?
:S

Keep 'em coming!

I use everything from early Celestron Erfles, Orthos and Plossls all the way up through modern widefields.

I am fascinated by eyepieces that simply get out of the way of the view. The first example is the 26mm Celestron Silvertop Plossl. The 28mm RKE and 48mm Brandon also share this trait.
