Depends on the telescope...
Pros:Strong Construction
Cons:Difficult To Focus
Comments:In my 8" Dob it worked well when observing SN2014J in M82. The FOV makes all the difference. I had the opportunity to try it out on the 82" Otto Struve telescope while viewing Jupiter at McDonald Observatory before a special viewing night. It was poor at best, even with a polarizing filter to cut down the brightness. But probably an unfair test.

Sep 11, 2012Quality and Versatility
Pros:Easy to Use,Strong Construction,Clear Image
Cons: Comments:After a summer of lousy weather and viewing conditions, finally had a crisp view of the Milky Way and Jupiter. The 9mm and 16mm Agena Megas really delivered, and it was a pleasant surprise to find that they are parfocal with my 42mm GSO Erfle. Spectacular starfields with the Erfle and a large view of Jupiter with all 4 Galilean moons at 226x -- what a viewing session! Great products!
