Features:

  • 82° Apparent Field of View: The eyepiece provides an expansive 82-degree apparent field of view, delivering an immersive visual experience. This wide field of view allows observers to take in large portions of the night sky in a single frame, making it particularly beneficial for observing celestial objects and capturing panoramic views.
  • 4.7mm Focal Length: With a focal length of 4.7mm, this eyepiece is designed for very high magnification observations. It excels in scrutinizing objects like planets, double stars, and fine details within deep sky objects. In near-perfect sky conditions, this eyepiece reveals planetary details that leave a lasting impression on observers.
  • Advanced Optical Design: The eyepiece incorporates advanced computer-designed optics, featuring a combination of low dispersion and high refractive index optical glasses. This design minimizes chromatic aberration and enhances color fidelity, ensuring exceptional image quality.
  • Multilayer Deposition Coatings: Robust multilayer deposition coatings are applied to the lens surfaces. These coatings optimize light transmission, reduce internal reflections, and enhance contrast, resulting in clear and crisp views of celestial objects.
  • Argon-Purged Waterproof Design: The eyepiece is argon-purged, creating a sealed environment that protects the internal elements from environmental factors. This ensures the eyepiece remains free from fogging, even in damp conditions. Argon gas provides superior sealing properties compared to Nitrogen, minimizing the risk of leakage over time.
  • High Contrast and Resolution: The eyepiece is optimized to deliver high contrast and resolution, allowing for detailed observations of celestial objects. This feature is crucial for discerning fine details on the lunar surface, planets, and deep-sky objects.
  • Superior Flat Field Characteristics: The eyepiece maintains excellent flat field characteristics, ensuring that stars remain sharp and pinpoint across the entire field of view. This feature is particularly valuable for astrophotography and detailed visual observations.
  • Long Eye Relief: The eyepiece offers generous eye relief, providing comfort for extended viewing sessions. This feature is especially appreciated by observers who wear eyeglasses, as it allows for comfortable viewing without the need for excessive eye strain.
  • Parfocal Design: The eyepiece maintains focus at near the same point regardless of the focal length selected. This parfocal design streamlines the observing process, allowing for smooth transitions between different eyepieces without the need for frequent refocusing.
  • Removable and Foldable Soft Silicone Rubber Eyecup: The eyepiece includes a removable and foldable soft silicone rubber eyecup, enhancing comfort during extended observing sessions. This feature provides a cushioned interface between the observer's eye and the eyepiece, reducing fatigue.
  • Included Accessories: The accessory set accompanying the Explore Scientific 82° Series 4.7mm Waterproof Eyepiece includes protective eyepiece caps, comfortable soft silicone rubber eyecups, a secure eyepiece pouch/case for storage, and is complemented by a limited 1-year warranty, ensuring heightened peace of mind for users.
