I have an almost complete set of Meade research grade Erfle's and the one I
like best is the 20mm. The field of view is larger than the Plossl (as
you've correctly pointed out) and with longer focal length telescope, the
edge of fields are not too bad either.

I love them. I just ordered a new LX200 with the eyepiece offer, and am
undecided on which ones I will keep and which ones I will sell.
