I want a Pentax 5mm XO...

  I've been looking for a 5mm XO for a couple of years now. There was one around a year ago but it was snapped up by a certain Mr Bacanin. There is a TMB 5mm Supermono available at the moment in the UK but I've owned one of those and the 30 degree AFoV is just TOO small !
  Good luck in your XO hunting Gerry

Bought an XW5 to go with the XW7 and XW10!

  Excellent choice Michael !
  The XW's are superb eyepieces. Steve (FLO) advised me to try them many years back but it was a while until I actually did. Hats off to RikM for going for a set way back when they were not so widely recognised. The XW5 is my favourite eyepiece for the Moon and planets - it's a pleasure to view though !

  Hi Dan,
  I reckon optically they could well be exactly the same.
