Jon, I don't know what it is about the E.W.F., but I find it very appealing, it has been on my radar for some time.

Jaimo!

Do you own one? It is an interesting eyepiece, I don't use it a lot but I use it more than my 40mm Celestron Plossl. In a side by side comparison, the Celestron Plossl wins on every point but when the time comes to choose an eyepiece, I always choose the EWF...

Go figure

Jon

I do not own one, but one day one will become available to me... I hope. I can't describe it, and I certainly don't NEED it, but there's just something about it that catches my attention.

Jaimo!

perhaps thats why i have always kept one or 2 around, Old school as it is I have always liked Kellners, I don't waer my glasses viewing because I don't have astigmatism so the low relief in higher powers isn't an issue for me.
BUT for under $40.00 for the whole set of 5 and a nice heavy case It is a great bargain....to me

$40? Not bad. Where do you find those deals?

Trolling EbAy at 3:30 AM one morning last week when I couldn't sleep. It was just listed BIN for $32.00 plus..
Couldn't pass it up. they are like brand new, only one actually looks like it had been used, I thought about breaking them up and selling them and useing the 5 eyepiece hard case for my RKE set. But I hadn;t seen the 17 and 6mm
in the MA, usually see the 25 and 9mm which I like. this doesn't have the 9 but has a 12.

I have an old Meade 25mm MA. Made in Japan, circle T sticker. Here's a pic of the internals....



Doublet eyelens on the right.
singlet - just noticable in the pic is very slight convex curvature on it's right hand surface.
