Description: | These affordable, fully multi-coated 2" eyepieces put the night sky in stunning perspective. Their long focal lengths render picturesque scenes of extended deep-space objects framed in a generously wide panorama of stars.
Optiluxe 2" eyepieces are fully multi-coated to ensure maximum light transmission. The 50mm is a modified Plössl design of five glass lens elements with a 45° apparent field, while the 32mm and 40mm are four-element wide field designs with apparent fields of 58° and 62°, respectively. Manufactured in Japan, all feature precision-machined and anodized aluminum housings with chrome-plated, internally blackened 2" barrels. The barrels now have a captive setscrew recess and are threaded for filters. Each sports a rubber traction ring for good grip. For use in 2" focusers or diagonals. The deep sky has never looked better!
