TOE4 mm or Delite 4mm

[JCAZ]

Looking for a high quality 4mm eyepiece for planetary work.  Any one had a chance to compare these two?

I did. The TOE was superior: whiter image, better contrast and very sharp ! As good as the XO 5

Thanks Roger.  Appreciate the feedback.  Was it comfortable to use?

I agree with Roger’s view. I’ve used both though not in alongside comparison. I kept the Tak and sold the Delite.  You might also like to consider the Vixen HR.  I have both the 4mm TOE and the 3.4mm Vixen HR.  I think both are fantastic.  In so far as it’s possible to allow for the difference in focal length, if I was pushed to choose one it would be the Vixen. Less pricey as well.

Thank you for the feedback.  Yes, I see the Vixen's get great reviews as well.  I just wish these companies would put out a more complete lines, even if it was focused on the higher power end of the spectrum given the design of the eyepieces.

Sorry for the late reply. Yes, I find them very comfortable to use but I do not wear glasses...
