Which eyepiece would you consider to be the "sleeper" in your collection (i.e. the one that doesn't retail for much money but is one heck of a performer)? I think the Antares W70 8.6mm is mine. The University Optics orthoscopic, in either the original or HD version. I tested them both against some very big name planetary eyepieces a couple of months ago and found them to have only a tiny amount more flare, with comparable resolution and contrast--at 1/3 to 1/4 the price. Their barlow is also very highly rated, but it's closer in price to the bigger names. Bob Ditto. Best bang for the buck out there. Tom |
