I am still a newbie when it comes to Astronomy. However, even my untrained eyes can notice the differences in cheaper telescope eyepieces. That is why I only buy Tele Vue Eyepieces now. Aside from this Tele Vue 13mm DeLite eyepiece, I own several others now; 32mm Plossl, 31mm Nagler Type 5, 27mm Panoptic, 24mm Panoptic, 22mm Nagler Type 4, 18.2mm DeLite, 17mm Nagler Type 4, 13mm Ethos, 10mm Radian, 10mm Ethos, 7mm DeLite, 6mm Ethos, 1.25 inch 2x Barlow and a Tele Vue 2 inch 2x Powermate.

I recently upgraded to this 13mm and another 24mm from Adorama. Comfortable eye relief and razor sharp views. Tele Vue eyepieces simply are well designed, high quality optics. This eyepiece represents great mid priced value with breaking the bank. Your stargazing experiences will be quite enjoyable.
