Very nicely done, Kain. You definitely deserved that prize.

Thanks Steve for explaining the different names. I had no idea what plossl actually meant. So what is a good budget wide angle EP? or is there no such thing?!

Congrats again.

Andrew,

We were discussing Field Of View and I used the Plossl design as an example.

Here is a post that discusses eyepiece types:

A good budget wide-angle eyepiece? For 80 degrees, its hard to beat the Moonfish range of Ultra-wides. At 68 degrees, I'd choose one of the Baader Hyperions and at 60 degrees, one of Meade's Series 5000 Plossls. IMHO.

Hope that helps
