Bst starguider ED are also excellent budget eyepieces and cost around 50 pounds!

I have used both the Baader Hyperions and the Vixen SLVs. Both series have excellent eyepieces that deliver crips images. I wear glasses, too, and I need greater FOV so I'm intrigued by the Omegon 32mm. I enjoyed your video, Bogdan. Thank you!

There must be quite a demand for good eyepieces, I keep finding some of the more recommended telescope eyepieces out of stock in most places.

Excellent video. I have the Svbony eyepiece with 66 degree field of view and also the second one presented in the video but made by TMB, both are excellent eyepieces.

Bogdan, your videos are top tier! The detailed information you provided, talking slowly and deliberately along with the that absolutely beautiful audio/video production quality make your content a joy not only to watch, but also listen to in the background as I make my way through my day. Thank you for taking the time to make such quality content!

Thank you Bogdan! I'm seriously starting to like the idea of a 32mm Swan, since back in the day I watched your review of said eyepiece. I hear good things all around and I think it could be used as a sort of "finder" as well in my 10" dob F5. Anyway great informative video 😊 Clear skies from Italy 🌌

Hi )) excellent presentation and informative. I think overall Baader Hyperion range seem to get the balance about right. Even the Zoom EP is very good. I use it with my SVBony 102ED

Maybe a combo of starguider/artesky ed 8mm and the well regarded Explore Scientific 20mm 68degrees (115 Euros) should work great. Having said that I ended up getting a first set consisting in an Svbony 7-21mm (50 euros) and at the last moment my family got for my birthday a Morpheus 17.5mm covering the same field as an ES 20mm 68 I was about to purchase.

Very well done. Informative and pleasantly brief. I will need to review this video to get the details

Surprised you didn't mention the Edmunds Scientific RKE 28mm. There's a reason it's not uncommon to see one in an eyepiece case sitting next to a bunch of Televues.

@conchobar I personally never heard of them, but I'll try to get my hands on one for a review. The specs certainly make them intriguing. Thanks for the info!

Thanks for review Bogdan. I would very much like to hear your thoughts on ultra low magnification eyepieces (> 50mm). It would be great if you could review the Meade or the Omegon 2" 56mm super plöessl(s). Cheers.

Those are absolutely necessary for long focal length Kirkham-Dall, SCTs, MCTs and some Dobsonians. I find it rather silly/cheap for Celestron to sell an 11 inch aperture scope with a 2800mm focal Length and a 1.25" visual back and matching diagonal that is the same as the one that came with my 5SE. I call it silly/cheap because my 80mm refractor comes with a 2" visual back and a 1.25 adapter. Then Celestron sends a 40mm Plossl at 70x with a 43° fov, which is as big as you can go with 1.25". Rather they just send a 2" visual back and no eyepieces.

Great review, just wondering what your alt az mount back on your left is made by? Thanks
@BogdanDamian3 ай бұрын
@jimmie2487 Its the SV225 from Svbony mount head on the AZ2 tripod legs from Skywatcher. The SV225 can be attached to any tripod with a 3/8" screw.

Great video. Look for recommendations for a smit-Newtonian f4 10in. Collimation is key. Even a bit of a rabbit hole if going for the blue Ghost collimation. Corrector plate help with good flat field. Tons of research later and I still can not decide what would be a good choice without putting me in the poor house lol. Not alot of info on this type of scope. Budget 200/300$ eyepieces. Trying to move away from my cheap ones. Any help would be greatly appreciated thank you

Hi! For high power observations I recommend Baader Hyperion or Explore Scientific 82° eyepieces. These are well corrected and should work without a problem in fast telescopes. For low power check out the SWA eyepieces from Skywatcher/Omegon etc.
@charlesburks39884 ай бұрын
So far I was considering 82deg axiom lx 10mm and meade uwa 4.7 82deg those are hard to find. So many changes/rebranded names also looking a ES argon purged. Thank you

Does the field of view of the eyepiece influence the brightness? If for example two 4 mm eyepieces have different FOV, one 60 degrees and the other 80 degrees, will the one with 80 degrees also have a brighter image ?
@BogdanDamian5 ай бұрын
@3dfxvoodoocards6 If all other characteristics are identical, then the fov shouldn't have an impact on the brightness of the image.

The only problem with all this eyepieces will be the resale value. Since now days wide angle eyepieces are available on a reasonable price buying narrow eyepieces will make you a permanent owner unless you are willing to discount them extremely heavily. On the end if you decide to upgrade or change you are going to basically loose almost completely your initial investment. Buying an eyepiece should be once in life time experience since they don’t wear out and saving money on an eyepiece will simply feel you with regret on top of all this most of the eyepieces are not returnable there is a big disclaimer in many stores. You can return a telescope but the eyepiece because it is making contact with your body is not returnable at least not in Canada so good luck.
