In terms of technical data, the eyepiece is comparable to the APM 2 UW eyepiece 30 mm with 80 degrees.
We have "slimmed it down" a little mechanically so that it can now also be used with our 150 mm binoviewer. Of course, it can still be used with Newtonians, SC telescopes or refractors.
The large, very well corrected field of view of 80° allows the observation of wide objects and star fields. With suitable nebula filters, the contrast of observation objects can be increased considerably in some cases. Even with large telescopes, such as Donsons, you can easily view large objects in the medium magnification range. The comfortable eye relief of 22 mm is suitable for spectacle wearers.
These modern optics offer a very good price-performance ratio and are one of our bestsellers in the field of overview eyepieces! As with all other APM eyepieces, the housing is solid and of high quality.
