Orion HighLight Plossl 40mm

although this is the first few Ep that i've bought to replace the crappy ones that comes with the telescope, i can see right away that they're a real bargin.

optics: i can't find any major flaw, the fov is flat right to the edge, no apparent seagulls. The only reason why i gave it a 9 is because my ep focuser couldn't extend far enough for my ep to work optimately(a quick fix would be fixing the ep on the metal body instead of the pre-made grip) Also, the long eye relieve means that you have to get used to looking into the ep from "afar".

overall, everything is as advertised(multicoated... supple eyeguard..etc) nice metal finish, fits perfectly in the focuser.Couldn't ask for better quality for the money. Strongly recommended
