Skywatcher SP Super Plossl

Skywatcher SP Super Plossl. Any good? I'm possibly after a new 32mm EP. Any recommendations? Can realistically spend up to about 50 squid.

The eyepiece is fine - I've tried a number of clones of it (Celestron, TAL, Antares but all from the same factory) and all were pretty nice to look through. Don't pay £50 for one though - used you should be able to pick one up for around £20 used. The Meade 4000 32mm's have a good reputation as well and, again, you should be able to get one for £25 or so used.

The Antares 32mm Plossl is available from Rother Valley Optics for about £25.00

They're a very good place to deal with, as well as FLO of course.

You can get it a few pounds cheaper from ScopesnSkies but I would rather pay a few pounds more from Rother Valley Optics and get proper service.

I have the 32mm TAL and it's a good eyepiece and it's about £40.
