Since I bought the Pentax XW 20 and 14 and as I was so impressed by the sharpness and contrast, I start to think about to get the 10. Jupiter views using the 14 + a powermate x2.5 were incredible… like a picture.

Love to add a ZAO or two. But I might settle for a couple TPL's. Not sure I'll bother with the Nagler 7's, since I have the Morpheus set and the ES 92's. I might pick one up to try though.

The recently announced Nagler Type 7 eyepieces from TeleVue are very attractive. I am curious to see what the price will be.

I have my eye on two eyepieces for this year: a 30mm UFF, and 9mm Nagler, and I think that will complete my set. For now.

Right now, I am considering myself lucky such that I am very happy with my Ethos and Nagler eyepieces. I don’t need long eye relief so the new Type 7’s are of no interest to me. I can save that wad of cash for other things.

I've been considering the Explore Scientific 30mm 82°or the Astro-Tech 28mm UWA 82° but I may wait and purchase a few more good filters instead. I really want the ES 30/82 but due to cost and size I may settle on the AT 28 UWA instead.

I'm afraid to even research how big that wad of cash needs to be.
