Planetary Eyepiece recommendations

[perrin6]

I like my William optics 6mm SPL (super planetary eyepiece) which at 300X, shows very subtle details in Jupter's atmosphere when conditions allow.

I had orthos in the past, liked the 25mm a great deal, but the 22mm Nagler trounced it. The 5mm I had was just frustrating due to its awful eye relief. If you wear glasses like me (astigmatism, so no easy workaround) it is a pain. All sharpness is lost by continuously touching the EP with your glasses, and having the image bounce up and down for a second, nudging it again, more bouncing, etc. Regarding PowerMates, the Meade TeleXtenders have a similar "get out of the way" effect. They are really good. Still prefer using TV Radians.
