Questions & Answers

Shopper : Why Did You Choose This?KENNETH H : wide field of view at a good valueJOHN B : I have owned this eyepiece in the past and I found that its mid range magnification works well with the 2500mm focal length of this scope.ANTONIO L : Explorer Scientific eyepieces are of great quality, and comparable with much more expensive ones.PETER B : I wanted a good quality eyepiece with a good field of view, good eye relief and little edge blurring. This also will provide high magnification for planets and the moon and should fit well with a cell phone adapter (Celestron NEXYZ).BRIAN C : Looking to add more zoomage to my 8” seROBERT C : This will be a gift. I owned a TeleVue 13mm-82deg eyepiece and wanted this to be the next best option.

By Valentine C.

Very nice EP. Well worth the price.

Because of its innovative design and high-quality materials, the Explore Scientific 82 Degree Series 11mm Argon-Purged Waterproof Eyepiece stands out in the market of advanced optical equipment. This eyepiece is expertly crafted using a blend of low dispersion and high refractive index optical glasses, which are further enhanced by durable multilayer deposition coatings. This unique combination is optimized to deliver high contrast, superior resolution, and exceptional flat field characteristics.

The Explore Scientific eyepiece offers a truly immersive viewing experience, thanks to its long eye-relief and an impressive 82-degree apparent field. This design allows your eye to relax, making it easier to use the "averted vision" technique to study faint details across a vast field-of-view.

Constructed with precision, this eyepiece features a meticulously assembled optical train housed in a machined metal lens barrel. This robust construction ensures perfect alignment and durability, allowing for years of rugged use in the field.

Adding to its user-friendly features, this eyepiece comes with a twist-up rubber eye-guard that can be adjusted to the desired height, providing optimal comfort for the observer. As seasoned astronomers can attest, eye comfort is crucial when trying to observe at the visual limits of the telescope.

To further enhance the viewing experience, all internal surfaces of the eyepiece barrel and the edges of the lenses are coated in flat black. This minimizes internal reflections and reduces light scattering within the lenses, ensuring a clear and precise viewing experience.

In summary, the Explore Scientific 82 Degree Series 11mm Argon-Purged Waterproof Eyepiece is a superior choice for those seeking high-quality, durable, and comfortable optical equipment.
