Hello Oz!

Well, you are in the middle of a dilemma... all these eyepieces are nice, but it's hard to get a final word on them, since most likely we've had one, or the other, but doubt there's a comparison made by the same person...

I personally had the UO 32mm KonigII, and loved it! quality is great, views are very nice... but ended up selling it because I wanted a lower mag wider field eyepiece, so ended up buying a UO 40mm MK-70... (a little more expensive than the ones you mentioned, but it is an awesome eyepiece!)

The Proxima might give you a wider FOV, but I have not had any experience with it to tell you if it is a better eyepiece overall... the UO 32mm was indeed a very nice one though...

As far as Siebert eyepieces goes, I've heard good and bad... but have not had a chance to test them personally.


Clear skies my friend, and good luck on your decision! (no matter what you decide, they all seem to be nice eyepieces!)
