Russell Optics Wide Angle 21mm
This eyepiece is rated at 65 degrees, but it is more like 80 degrees. To get the full 80 degrees, your eye has to get very close, but not touching the lens. For a 65 degree field, you could wear glasses. The edge performance is good, the center performance is very good, the transmission is very good, the construction is very professional, and it is very small and light. This is the best way to get Nagler like views on a budget.
