Funny enough Matthew, this came up at the TAS meeting last night. Someone did (strongly) recommend them. Can't remember much else. It might have been William Coghlan...

I got the moonfish 30mm 2inch for xmas...... have to say I am quite pleased with the FOV (80 degs).

It gets soft at the edges at F5, but the view is huge. the Pleiades looked stunning it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Overall pretty good value for money for a 2 inch 30mm 80 deg FOV ep.... oh! and I'm using it in the 6inch LX90

Hope this helps
