A truly stunning cluster, first saw this with my 10x50s. In the telescope the cluster is circular in shape with it filling the FOV. Personally my favorite cluster. 50-150 stars visible.

Bright and resolvable in the 9x50 finder. Butterfly shape apparent in both finder and telescope. 15-25 stars visible.

Bright, clearly visible central hole. Much improved over my starblast. I got the best views with a 25mm, the ten millimeter proved too dark.

With a 6mm the Cassini division was clearly visible and banding was spotted. Titan was also visible. Using a 3.6mm eyepiece the image turned blurry.
