>To me, I really can't tell the difference between this $200 "Super" monocentric and a Genreric 9mm Plossl. I really don't see what is so super about it. It certainly isn't $200 more super.

>To be a bit fair, perhaps the jury is still out on it as far as I am concerned. I have a Celestron GPS 11. Sometimes when I view Saturn with it it seems better with more contrast than the Generic Plossl, then sometimes it doesn't. For $200, the difference should be more evident.

>I have a Denkmeir bino viwer, I use two Generic 32 mm plossls and a pair of 9mm Generic Plossls. From my limited experience, I reccomend that you not purchase a pair of very expensive eyepieces for bino view use. Unless you really have moeny to burn. Plossl eyepieces seem to work fine in the Denkmeir. There are other items in this hobby to spend that kind of money on.
