StellaLyra 30mm Ultra Flat 2"

[Coxy80]

Has anyone tried this eyepiece? 
 

My widest eyepiece is a Baader Morpheus 17.5mm and I wondered if the StellaLyra 30mm Ultra Flat 2" would be a good match for my Starfield 102mm f/7 ED Doublet Refractor?

I'll be ordering one next week specifically for the Starfield (when my long awaited bonus arrives). I reckon they are a good match and it fills nicely the gap between my 42mm and 22mm LVWs.

Review after Xmas. It's a present and I'm not allowed near it! 😂😂😂

I would expect it to be outstanding, it’s the same as the APM number

30mm = 24x

17.5mm = 41x.

You do not need an eyepiece in between.  In fact, they're a bit close together, magnification-wise.

I have a 102mm f/7 triplet, and own the 30mm and the 17.5mm, but I usually skip right over to the 12.5mm at 57x when I need a higher power than the 30mm.

But the Morpheus 17.5 is such a gorgeous EP - best of the range.

Agreed, although the 9mm isn’t too far behind.

I often start with that one, and simply bypass the longer focal lengths.

I like the 9mm a tad better, though.

I have the StellaLyra (Long Perng) 20 mm 2" 80° EP, which makes a 17.5 Morph a bit redundant. That SL is a great bit of kit, btw.
