Re: threats to the validity of eyepiece comparison

I have always considered about 90% of the "reviews" of eyepieces and telescopes to be pretty much for entertainment value only.
Except for the generic dimensional and optical data, the material relating to the subjective analysis of the items is too dependant on individual sets of eyes to be of any real value.
Also...reviews from the more "well known" reviewers generally end with the reviewer sitting squarely on the fence.
You have to pretty much look at and through this hardware yourself to really come to any conclusions.
Just my 2 cents.....
