I haven't seen much as far as reviews go. Any body have any comments? My use would be in an 8" f/6 for planetary powers.
Thanks,
Jason

Hi Jason -

I have the 10mm XW and it is an excellent eyepiece. It is sharp to the edge in my 8" f/5, and has very good transmission and contrast.

One thing that I saw in an ad was that the eyerelief was very close, can anyone speak on this?
