Some fantastic eyepiece collections here!

Yep; the Pan looks a little lonely among the big boys!

Yes, I took this pic and said "That Pan just looks sandwiched in between the ES's". After the first of the year I will probably sell the Pan and get the 20mm 100 ES and call it good.

Alright, here's mine then. Waiting for an ES82 30mm, Delos 10 and 6mm and *perhaps* ES100 14 and 5.5. And a Paracorr. I think they fit inside.
Markus, I like your attitude. I would like to have something from you, how about that Delos 6?

Here is my ethos case. To be fair there is also a Nagler 31mm, couple of 2" powermates (2x, 4x), a televue 2" diagonal and finally 4 Astronomik 2" visual filters in there too.

It is a Storm narrow case. I left a large cutout on the right for lens caps, blower bulb, eyeglasses, new eyepieces to evaluate, etc, etc.

My wide fields are a mixed assemblage, yet are all 82-90 AFOV and weight similar. The Kasai is the ultimate finder eyepiece with a 46mm field stop and is very easy to use. The Nagler is a little less in FOV, but better corrected. The Docter and Tak are the work horses of the lot.

Amongst 1.25 eyepieces are: an ATC 17P (60 degree AFOV), Pentax XF 8.5, Nagler 3-6, and Pentax 2.5 XO.

These focal lengths are a great match to my short focal length refractors.

Small cutout provides space for filters and flashlight.

Version 1.5 of my eyepiece set. My beloved Panoptics, plus a bunch of new Deloi. Also a bunch of those cheap Opt 1.25" adapters. Now i need a new eyepiece case though.
