The Plössl eyepiece design has set a new standard for quality and has been in use for decades. Its popularity is due to the good performance at an unusually low price. TS Optics Super Plössls are state of the art Plössl eyepieces with outstanding optical quality. They are particularly well suited for observing planets and the moon. Their image sharpness and their high transmission makes them ideal eyepieces for many applications.
The TS Super Plössl 6mm is a wonderful high magnification eyepiece, particularly suitable for observing the planets and the moon. The eye relief is a little narrow, however this is not a problem when viewing the planets which only fill a small portion of the field of view. However the transmission and sharpness are a match for many more expensive eyepieces, and superior to many eyepieces with a long eye relief!
TS Super Plössls are very well suited for eyepiece projection photography. Plossls offer a large undistorted field. They can be used with most standard eyepiece projection adapters, or if you have only a limited amount of back focus (especially on Newtonian telescopes) you can use the TSO-FotoringT2 for the camera adaptation.
