      5.0 38mm Q-70

      Pros:

      Crystal clear large view of the sky. Low cost

      Cons:

      It's big, but I guess it has to be.

      Comments:

      This is one large eyepiece. Much larger than the 26 and 32mm versions of Q-70's, it requires a pretty hefty scope and mount. Like its smaller brothers, it is a very high quality product which will give you a tack-sharp view of a very large chunk of the sky. It is the only way I can capture the full Pleiades with my 10" LX200R scope. I don't use it often, but when needed for the big picture views, it is outstanding. Am looking forward to trying it out on Andromeda. Highly recommend for those wide angle views you occasionally need. For only $100 (less if you buy all 3 together) it seem like a bargain compared to its $600 similar cousins.
