The optical performance and width of field of the 15mm Vixen are comparable to other quality eyepieces in its price range, such as a good Plössl. There is a slight loss of contrast when compared to a simpler four-element Plössl, however, due to the additional optical elements needed to achieve the long eye relief of this Vixen. The loss is minimal though, and this 15mm Vixen would still have the benefit of much longer eye relief (particularly at a price half that of other 20mm eye relief eyepieces in this focal length range).
