HT coatings and wider FOV make them excellent faint fuzzy hunters.
I agree. I was very impressed by the greater contrast internal to the Merope reflection nebula when I directly compared them with TV Panoptics, Vixen NPLs, and TV Plossls.

They are also very nice on planets too!

Very nice review! :Clap: Also very informative that they outperformed the TV Plossls and others on faint fuzzies. They are definitely a worthwhile set with many unique points to them.
Thanks Bill! Since the review I have acquired a second set of BCOs to use in binoviewers. I need better seeing to try 6mm and 10mm, but 18mm and 32mm work quite nicely. 32mm pair are my most used in binoviewers.
