Description of Astromania 1 25 Super Ploessl Eyepiece

A quality eyepiece - providing a better image than those that come included with new telescopes. 52 degree field of view (46° for the 40mm) - significantly wider than Kellner and standard Ploessl eyepieces. Multi-coating and blackened lens edges for high contrast: When observing with a telescope, it really all comes down to good quality eyepieces - these are just as important as the telescope itself. 1.25" connector - the eyepieces will fit in any telescope. Rubber fold-down eyecups to protect against stray light. A large range of focal lengths - from 4mm to 40mm: These eyepieces provide you with a range of 9 focal lengths. So you are guaranteed to find the right magnification and increments for your telescope. And the best part - all the eyepieces are parfocal.

"Impressive Eyepiece for Astrophotography

Astromania's 1 25 Super Ploessl eyepiece is a must-have for astrophotography. The eyepiece produces sharp and clear images, even in low-light conditions. Its wide field of view adds an extra layer of depth to the visuals .Electronics can be easily attached to the eyepiece thanks to its comfortable grip and sturdy design. However the eyepiece is on the pricier side compared to its competitors..

Pros
  • Sharp and clear visuals, wide field of view, comfortable grip for electronics
Cons
  • Slightly expensive compared to competitors

I bought this eyepiece to use with the Zhumell Z130. I had a complete Celestron Firstcope 4mm eyepiece which alone (whole scope and 2 EPS) cost a little more than this 4mm Super Plössl EP. I liked the 4mm focal length, just thought I could do a little better. Well, this EP wasn't the answer. Compared to the EP kit, it has a tiny hole. It's like looking through a pinhole. It's almost ridiculous how small it is. Likewise, the FOV is terrible. In every way this "super" 4mm seems to be inferior to…
