Planetary EP 7mm

Recommended Posts

I have both a 7mm University Optics (Circle-T) ortho and an 8mm Vixen LVW

The latter is a great eyepiece, comfy to use and a relatively wide view. As I don't use driven mounts, this is a real benefit. However, there have been times that the ortho shows some feature that the LVW didn't - and I don't think it was down to magnification. 

A little different in size though.

I have the same combination - a Circle-T 7mm and LVW 8mm. I do find the ortho a bit crisper and brighter. It's close though and the LVW is one of the most comfortable eyepieces to use. The size unbalances my Dob though...
