Comments about Celestron Celestron 10mm X-Cel Series 1.25" Eyepiece with 55 Degree Field of View & Long Eye Relief.:

It's tall and heavy and it does work well when used as a single unit. Generous field of view. But, it may not work in pairs when used in binoviewers. The images of two X-Cel 10mm did not merge on the TeleVue BinoVue no matter what I did to fix the issue. At very high magnifications and when it is used with a 2X Barlow everything depends on atmospheric conditions. Despite all this it won't compete with a Meade SWA eyepiece at 16mm. The Meade wins.
