I ask if someone has "observed" through one, because I have had the chance to hold one. It has Televue quality through and through and I can't help but feel envious of those that own a quality eyepiece collection. Sky and Telescope magazine labeled this as a Hot Product 2008.
If you have had any experience observing with the Ethos eyepiece please leave some comments. |
Hi Darryl, came today, tested first on terrestrial stuff. Instructions enclosed indicate a prob with some refractors using TV Everbrite diagonals. No prob with my TAK, only thing, to get the best out of it
if you wear glasses, you really need TVs Dioptrx if your eye not so good.
The central view just so, but to see the whole field one has to move ones eye position to one side or another, the apparent FOV determined by
ones eye. As a photographer of many years, and a lover of wide angle lenses, what I saw on my screen, was what I got.
Never the less, this lens majors in contrast and detail I never experienced
before. Tell you more when this damn cloud breaks and can see the stars.
