ES 52 Degree Eyepieces

#1

Post by Refractordude »


Has anyone tried these eyepieces, and what is your comparison opinion? For example Agenaastro Starguider 15mm eyepiece Vs ES 15mm 52 degree eyepiece. Thinking of getting the ES 52 degree 10mm, 15mm, and 25mm. However, I like the Starguider reviews. The Starguiders have more glass, thus perhaps better edge correction. The ES 52 degrees have less glass, thus perhaps more light.

I have tried the whole series (as a loan from ES). In my opinion, the 15mm is the gem of the series. The 25mm is good also. I do not specifically recall the performance of the 10mm, but I was quite impressed with the 15mm followed by the 25mm. :)
