Orion Sirius Plossl 20mm
I bought one of these eyepieces a while back used, but in new shape, from a friend of mine. I love it. It has the FOV in my 4.5" F8 reflector as the supplied 25mm MA (1.1 degrees), and the optical quality makes up for the loss of brightness due to increase of magnification. It is sharp all the way to the very edge of the field of view, and shows very little chromatic aberration. This is definitely a VERY good deal for someone on a budget.

The 32mm and 25mm are the best of the Plossl line. Bright images, decent field of view, and good eye relief. When you drop below 25mm, the eye relief starts to get a little short. Below 10mm the eye relief is negligable - to the point where I won't use them even if I won them.
