It's just a flesh wound.
I recently purchased a Pentax PF-80ED with the SMC 20x-60x zoom. I am extremely happy with performance of the scope and the eyepiece, other than the eye relief dropping off slightly in the middle zoom range.
I have already run in to a situation where I could have used more magnification. The scope certainly appears able to handle more, with the right viewing conditions.
I am considering something in the 4mm to 6mm range, possibly a Tele Vue Radian or Vixen Lanthanum.
What higher mag eyepieces have you tried in your scopes, and what was your opinion of them?
Also, has anyone tried a 2x barlow in the PF-80ED with the SMC zoom?
Thanks,
Mike
