>One of the best overall eyepieces on the market. Easy viewing, medium power, decent FOV, sharp optics, TV resale/quality. What more can you ask?

Amazing eyepiece in my Sky Mentor 12" F/5 scope.
Very small amount of astigmatism in my pristine figured optics.
I would recommend the 22 Pan to anybody because IMHO this eyepiece is a real winner !!!!

The only problem with the 20mm Nag t2 is the weight. The EP is tack sharp to the edge @ f/4.7, but @ 2.3 LBS the scope
needs heavy re-balancing, and even then when you take out the 20 Nag T2, the scope wants to tip backwards.

I just snagged a 22mm Pan i place of the 20 Nag T2!
