Pros & Cons
Pros
This is about as much as i want to spend on an eyepiece for a casual hobby. This is a keeper, and i have added others to my wishlist. The build quality is exceptional and i now know the difference quality optics can make first hand.
It provides crisp images of the solar surface in this scope. It brign to mi a better view of planets like mars, satur and jupiter. Jupiter's bands, great spot and moons are quite clearly visible, but equatorial adjustment frequent at this width.
Cons
It suffers from having black specs at the focal plane.

The build quality is exceptional and i now know the difference quality optics can make first hand
I bought a shorter focal length in this lens series and was dismally disappointed with the quality of the lens i received
Id rate it equal to celestron xcel series in quality
Packaging/appearance
The oem packaging was not sealed and the eyepiece was out of the box when it arrived
The eyepiece has to be secured tightly in the focuser to do this

These are the more narrow field of view eps fov which are ideal for solar system and high power views

You pay a premium for fov which is not needed when doing high magnification views

The large fov is immediately evident

Just make sure the focal length of your telescope can accommodate the magnification rating
