Description

Since their introduction, TeleVue Plossls have been a recognised benchmark of performance and value in the class of 50 degree apparent field of view eyepieces.

 

With noticeably less astigmatism and lateral colour at fields edge, they deliver sharper images than any other 4 or 5 element "Plossl".

 

For a bit more than generic brands, you can own a genuine TeleVue Plossl. Remember, you'll always be happy with the best.

The entire range of TeleVue Plossl eyepieces feature fold down eye guards, larger models have rubber ring grips.



Review

 

This is a very good medium high to high power eyepiece for observing lunar and planetary detail, resolving globular clusters, small planetary nebulae .

It has only 5mm of eye relief that will limit the field for eyeglass wearers.

This 8mm TeleVue Plössl was rated the best 8mm Plossl in a recent test report of 31 eyepieces in Sky & Telescope magazine.

Like all TeleVue Plossls it has filter threads to fit your filters and blackened lens edges as well as being parfocal.
