Wide-angle eyepiece with high sharpness, gas filling and 68 ° apparent field This eyepiece with 68 ° field of view is filled waterproof and with gas. The gas effectively prevents internal fogging, the ingress of dust and moisture and the formation of glass mushroom. Thus, the high-quality multi-layer coating is particularly well protected and durable. The handling is easier, because you can handle the eyepiece easily with cleaning fluid and strong dew can not penetrate between the lenses. Eyepiece so this guarantees a perfect observing experience for many years! Of course, you must not make any compromises in image quality, because the eyepiece offers a sharp and high contrast images throughout the entire field of vision - even with telescopes with a fast aperture. High quality glass material and the blackened lens edges provide along with the EMD multi-layer coating for maximum contrast. In addition, include a folding rubber eyecup, a standard filter thread and a tapered locking groove in the stainless steel receptacle to the standard equipment of this eyepiece. All eyepieces of the 68 ° series are parfocal. This means you do not need to correct the focus when switching eyepieces.

You want to collimate your Newtonian telescope to get the best possible image out of it and need a collimation aid that is precise but inexpensive.Long metal tube with crosshairsThe collimation eyepiece is simple but absolutely effective. With practice, you will be able to collimate your Newtonian telescope in just a few minutes - especially if simply finely collimating your telescope for optimal imaging. The eyepiece consists of a long metal tube, a reticule and a 45° base. The reticule gives you the orientation required for the optical axis.Collimation of refracting telescopesIf you use the eyepiece for checking the collimation of a refracting (lens) telescope, then you will see as many reflections as there are lenses in the telescope. If all the reflections are round and centred, then your telescope is well collimated.

For further information on this FMC coating please see "user reports"! Blackened lens edges for suppression of stray light inside the eyepiece. This is particularly important when viewing bright objects Rubber eyeguard for better viewing comfort. The eyeguard also keeps stray light from the side out of your eyes.
The LF1110, 1.25" Polarizing Filter, is the best all-purpose lunar and planetary filter. Cuts glare and increase contrast on the moon and planets. In addition to polarizing the light, the Lumicon Polarizing Filter reduce its intensity by a factor of about 3 times. Maybe double-stacked with Lumicon color filters for use on bright planets. Also useful for daylight observation of land, sea, and nature. Fits 1.25" eyepieces. The Lumicon Polarizing Filters are made from renowned Schott- Hoya optical glass and allow for maximum contrast on viewing planetary and lunar detail. Individually precision ground highly polished with maximum light transmission coatings on both sides.
Fine planetary detail is almost always enhanced with the use of color filters. Since different planets exhibit different colors on their surfaces, it only makes sense that if a filter restricts a neutral color and transmits a feature color, the contrast will be improved and more detail will be seen. Observers often ask which filter should be used for which planet, and for this question, there are no firm answers. For one thing, the colors of the details on some planets are continually changing. Also, everyone's eye response is slightly different, we're talking about very subtle detail, and the best results have to be achieved by trial and error. And since the filters can be stacked by threading them together, there are a lot of combinations to try. Antares filters are available singly and inset in the most popular hues for both 1.25" barrels.The Lumicon Lunar & Planetary Filter Set, LF5045, is an excellent "starter-kit," a set of four (4) of Lumicon's most popular 1.25" lunar and planetary filters: the LF1025, #15 Yellow-Orange; the LF1060, #56 Green; the LF1070, #80A, Blue; and the LF1085, Neutral Density 25.
Lumicon Polarizing Filters are manufactured from optically flat Hoya polarized glass. They are the best for cutting all glare and increases contrast on bright celestial objects such as the moon at full illumination and can be double-stacked with other Lumicon filters for use on bright planets. They are also useful for daylight observation of land, sea, and nature. In addition to polarizing the light, they reduce its intensity by a factor of about 3 times.
