Russell Optics 25mm

Couldn't ask for a better mid-level 2" eyepiece. Gives crisp clear views across the FOV. Very nice quality and construction. Threaded for filters and has a eyecup that can fold down. All in all I have purchased 5 eyepieces from Gary Russell and I am extremely pleased with all of them, and would purchase them again.

Russell Optics 25mm

Very disappointing after hearing good things about the Russell eyepieces. This is nothing more than a cheap 1.25" eyepiece dropped into a 2" adapter and then being called a "2 inch" eyepiece. Lenses appear to be poorly coated. At 55 degrees, this is hardly a "SWA" eyepiece as it says on the barrel. But what do you expect? You can't get much more AFOV out of a 25mm 1.25" eyepiece than that. I'd recommend a Rini instead.
