Flat field - anyone tried these?

[mdstuart]

I am looking for a 12 - 13 mm eyepiece.

I have not seen these before.

Has anyone tried them?

Apart from some of the text detail, they look very much like the Teleskop Service Edge-on Flat field EPs like this one:

Same range of focal lengths and AFOV.

Unfortunately I have no experience of them but I am sure others on here may have.

Thanks...yes I can see now there are various clones.

i must wait for a 13mm lvw!

Hi Mark, the 13mm LVW is a cracking ep, worth waiting for in my opinion!

I use the 8 mm flat field, it's a cracking ep in fast scopes and also useful in refractors,

Thanks Nick...I may try one if a LVW does not come up.
