Siebert's not doing anything that you can't do yourself. I've seen a few of his eyepieces, two were very good, one, a Konig variant, didn't fare so well. All were machined plastic (great minds think alike! ;) C. --- Howard Jackman <sumoetx@yahoo.com> wrote:
Rich, take a look at this site; http://www.siebertoptics.com/ I'm not sure what type of lens' he uses that gives such a large eye lens but the FOV seems bigger, the eye relief seems to me to be a little better, but I haven't done any type of measuring to be able to tell you exactly how much more than versus a standard ortho or plossl of the same focal length. I'm sure that a call or email to him would answer some questions, as he's a very friendly guy!

PS, Chuck I'd cough up $15 bucks for a kit!!
