Description

The Levenhuk Ra Plössl 6mm 1.25" eyepiece is well suited for observations of the solar system planets. The accessory allows for observing at a very high magnification so that it is possible to see many details of astronomical objects. Due to its barrel diameter of 1.25'', it is compatible with most telescopes, such as reflectors, refractors, and catadioptrics.

The glass optics are fully multi-coated. They reduce most of optical aberration. Therefore, the rendered image is sharp and clear, especially in the center of the field of view. The apparent field of view is 55°. This is a very good specification for eyepieces of this class.

The eyepiece's body is made of aluminum.

Features:

Multi-element eyepiece for planetary observations
Fully multi-coated glass optics render bright and clear images
Good field of view, minimum aberration
Universal eyepiece can be used with a telescope of any optical design
1.25'' barrel diameter
