Using advanced computer design, combinations of low dispersion and high refractive index optical glasses, and durable multilayer deposition coatings, Explore Scientific 100° Series™ and 82° Series™ hyper-wide and ultra-wide field eyepieces are optimized to produce high contrast, high resolution, and superior flat field characteristics.

The visual effect of these eyepieces with their long eye-relief and their giant apparent fields is an extreme full-immersion experience. You have to try it understand the visual impact that these eyepieces produce.


Using advanced computer design, combinations of low dispersion and high refractive index optical glasses, and durable multilayer deposition coatings, Explore Scientific 82° Series™ extreme wide field eyepieces are optimized to produce high contrast, high resolution, and superior flat field characteristics.

The visual effect of these eyepieces with their long eye-relief and their 82° apparent field is truly a full-immersion experience. Your eye is relaxed, allowing you to easily use the "averted vision" technique to study faint details across a huge field-of-view.


Each eyepiece is meticulously assembled into precision machined metal lens barrels that maintain the perfect alignment of the optical train for years of rugged use in the field.The 82° Series eyepieces come with a twist-up rubber eye-guard that raise to the desired height for the comfort of the observer, and as experienced astronomers know, eye comfort is critical when trying to observe at the visual limits of the telescope.

To keep internal reflections to a minimum, all internal surfaces of the eyepiece barrel are flat black, as well as the edges of the lenses themselves to minimize the scattering of light within the lenses themselves.
 

In today's modern telescope industry there are many fine companies to choose from manufacturing top quality eyepieces. We invite direct side-by-side comparison with any other eyepiece of similar design, and we back our eyepieces with our exclusive Five Year Limited Warranty.* We think that you will find Explore Scientific eyepieces rank among the finest obtainable and represent an outstanding value.

    Comments about Explore Scientific 82 Degree Series Nitrogen Purged Waterproof Telescope Eyepieces:

    I bought the 4.7 to use in an f/5 6 inch dob, intending it mainly for planet viewing. It provides a clear view throughout the field and has comfortable eye relief (I wear glasses). Easy to view, easy to focus. It is relatively trim and of modest weight.

      Comments about Explore Scientific 82 Degree Series Nitrogen Purged Waterproof Telescope Eyepieces:

      My intention is to use this for low-magnification (37.5X) in my 5 inch Refractor (F7.5). It excels with this. In comparison to the perfectly adequate 20mm EP (brand x?), which came with my SW 120 ED, it really stands out in full-field clarity and a very wide field. It also shows greater detail on the moon, and a tiny bit less color overall. Did I mention the wonderful wide view? Since it works on the moon, I am anxious to barlow it and see what happens. But the most outstanding thing is that it is very user-friendly. I can look for hours through this (and did last night. This is where it REALLY stands out compared to Brand X. Oh, and did I mention the Wonderful Wide View?>
