  1. I’ve read they are pretty much on the money.
  2. And it’s a “proper” TV extender. Not many people are daft enough to pay for them however, its me we’re talking about 🤣
  3. By the way, the 2.25” cap is on the 6 as well. I wouldn’t want you to think it lacks in clarity 🤣
  4. I’m keen to hear you findings with that one.
  5. They look very good. Same stable as the APM if I’m correct.
  6. 😁now then,, when shall I get the 10 ?????
  7. Once this APM zoom is in its final design and actually produced, someone will buy one. Next they will use it and report their findings and rate it. It’s like landing people living on mars, hard to rate the experience yet. Speculation is a fine thing.
  8. Lucky about the slo mo’s. I find I can’t reach mine easily with my 200. I have to hug it to move it. Hope nobody sees me 🤣
  9. Yes.. a proper mount. The final upgrade. Congratulations.
  10. I have the 2”. Pretty much the same. They are excellent.
  11. That’s one in each pocket and one in the telescope. Need a big pocket for the 21 though 😉
  12. To be honest ethos or not they look pretty fantastic. I’m sure they will shine.
  13. I have the 2” bbhs prism diagonal. It does not have a stop as such and I was very concerned as you are however, I use ethos 6 & 8 with 2” barrel extenders and if you carefully slide them into the click lock they do stop short of hitting the prism. Also it’s safe with the ethos 13 without the 2” barrel extender and the 1.25” barrel is clear of the prism. It’s not a barrel stop as such but more of a slight lip that you can feel as you slip the eyepiece in. I use mine like this all the time. This was something I had to find out for myself but I’m quite happy with this and no longer worry about hitting the glass. Hope this helps. If you have any questions about this please ask as I found it hard to get any answers when I was in the same situation as you are.
  14. The 22 nagler is same fov as 27 panoptic but with the darker sky that was my logic.
  15. I find it similar in use to a Delos but wider. It’s the same weight as the APM 20 which is about my comfortable limit. I does sit very nicely above my 13e and when I get a chance for some real usage... well. I think it was a good choice with my telescope and my other eyepieces.
  16. That does look good. Here’s my version of it 🤣
  17. Nobody need the fov from 5 down but it is sure nice to have👍
  18. There will be some happy people out there as you will be moving on some fine optics.
  19. It’s a painful journey and then you see the light and the light is wide 😁
  20. I just loved the idea of a high quality prism. I never feel I could get anything more from a diagonal if I’m honest.
