Over the years I’ve been refining my eyepiece collection and this XW is the fourth try for my longest (around 40mm) glass. My ancient military 38mm Erfle was replaced with a Baader 36 aspheric, a debatable upgrade. Next try was a Vixen 42LVW, a real improvement over the Baader but still a bit lacking. This Pentax hits all the right spots for me, beating out the LVW in off-axis astigmatism AND controlling AMD as well RD...How do they do that with 6 elements? I can’t speak of TeleVue’s Pan 41 as it exceeded my size/weight limit. This eyepiece is absolutely the most comfortable I’ve ever used in my scopes which range from F 5.4 to F 7. My search for the long glass is over!
