I think probably not. and they are currently also sold under the labels: Aah but they are new new to Stellaruve. In my scopes, I generally use the 3.5 mm Nagler with the 2X TV Barlow as my highest magnification. The knurled grip rings and construction of both are superb. My conclusion upon testing this 100 group was that performance was more or less commensurate with price. These are $65 or so.., Observing in Northern/Southern Michigan, USA, The NEAF Report from nPAE Precision Astro Engineering. It is plenty wide enough and 1.25 inch 82 degree eyepieces are just so much more compact than their 100 degree counterparts. I'll be curiously watching how this pans out as to the origins of these EP's, if they end up being the old UWANs they are priced pretty competitively. F/7 is more forgiving than faster scopes so that does help. The tool will then calculate your grade in the German grading system. Stars are sharp across all but the outer 20 percent. A frequent example on here is the 84 degrees of the Docter 12.5, which is a highly accessible but wide field. I can easily watch a close double drift past the field stop of a type 6 Nagler and often do. Bottom Line: The standard of performance for 100 eyepieces. I tested nine brands of 82 eyepieces, all in the 13 mm to 16 mm range, a focal length that provides moderate power on most telescopes and so is suitable for all types of viewing. This is why some wide field EP's cost more, some, a lot more. Ive never been a fan of zoom eyepieces. I doubt this as JOC won't sell eyepieces to any US brand other than ES since 2012. Though advertised as 80, I found the apparent field matched a Naglers 82 field. It eliminates the need to rebalance the telescope. You sometimes feel more like you are actually there, in the view. Though more costly, the Stellarvue Optimus also stood out for price vs. performance in a full 100 eyepiece. While the NexStar SE/Evolution Celestron, Celestron Tabletop Tripod, NexStar SE. Introducing the Stellarvue Optimus eyepiece series. As for "triple testing" eyepieces, that I seriously doubt happens. Bottom Line: Very good optics and mechanics for an excellent price. public University. Im hoping these will perform similarly. Stellarvue 8mm UWA 82 degree eyepice that has never been used. At TUM, grades from 1 to 5 are assigned. We have the same scope, so I can give you a few pointers to consider. I find that I can use nearly the entire field of an 82 eyepiece for observing an object but the wider field of a 100 or 110 eyepiece does not add much to the field useful for observing the planets and double stars. Anything is possible. It's the same at low power, which Ernest just pointed out. I find the Televue better, but both the ES and UWA are very close. If I'm pleased with the SV 28, I may just go with SVs to complete a set, we'll see. They are probably another variation of the UWANs, thought the specified focal lengths have been changed from 7mm to 8mm and from 16mm to 15mm. Anyway, my main concern was trying to get most or all of the Pleiades in my view. Buy all three of our high end 82 degree eyepieces and save! Bottom Line: A top-class eyepiece for optics and build quality. It was definitely one of the better ones, as the 24uwa/es82 is, and likely the exact same optics. The Stellarvue Ultrawide eyepiece set includes three eyepieces: 4.0 mm 1.25" Ultrawide angle eyepiece with 82 degree apparent field of view ( click here for specifications) 8.0 mm 1.25" Ultrawide angle eyepiece with 82 degree apparent field of view ( click here for specifications) The Omegons weight is 600 grams, at the lower end of the range for eyepieces in this group. This grade conversion formula, together with your degree programs Academic and Examination Regulations (FPSO), is a tool to help your convert grades earned in countries other than Germany. However, on a Schmidt-Cassegrain, with its more forgiving f/10 focal ratio, off-axis sharpness was much better. Mega gratz on your new scope NIckwin. Get a chair! any limitations are just limitations and can not be named "favorite", (2) acceptable (not a favorite) eyepiece AFOV depends from nature of observing object. We all have different preferences for eyepieces. The 28mm has a 2" barrel, the rest are 1.25". I think you got a nice deal on those eyepieces and I bet they work just fine. For some reason, uncle Al seems to have a monopoly on 13-16mm compact 82s that perform well in fast scopes as the 16 UWAN was the weak link in that line as well, but I don't remember ever trying the 16, or scrutinizing the 15mm axiom LX vs the 14 Meade or ES. It is Bavaria's largest city and the third largest city in Germany (after Berlin and Hamburg). Like the Ethos, it can be used as either a 2-inch or 1.25-inch eyepiece. Pros: Very good optics and waterproof construction. Bottom Line: Economical but with optical flaws. Cons: Field less than others; eyecup height not easily adjustable. As objects get smaller, and magnification gets higher, I think I appreciate a view that is tightened up a bit. The 102 degree Nikon HWs are another good example. You probably won't notice the difference. FWIW I looked at the Pleiades yesterday with a 32mm Plossl, a 24mm UFF (~65 AFOV) with my XT10 which has the same focal length as your telescope. You are right, he has a complete optical and CNC machine shop at his facility. New from Stellarvue, ultra-wide eyepieces. This is a recommended complete set of eyepieces for use with any Stellarvue telescope from the SV70T to the SV152 Flagship! Yes, for standard 1.25" and 2" eyepiece filters. The one piece of information I have not been able to find here or on other forums is what FOVs people prefer, whether the specified field of view is at specific focal lengths or in general. sold for a while and that line was 16, 8, 4. Heres a low-cost zoom eyepiece that actually works well. Collecting EP's is a journey for sure in finding out what you really like. But I'm thinking a pair of the 16's might make a nice selection for binoviewers. They look absolutely identical apart from a few superficial features (eyecup, 1.25" barrel and rubber grip band). I really like the 82 FoV in my scope, great image, easy to manage and store. Astromania now sells a 32mm, but I suspect it is a 31mm Luminos. Maybe Vic star tests these though! I tested this set on f/6 apo refractors and f/5 to f/6 Newtonian reflectors, concentrating on comparing on-axis and off-axis sharpness. The field is so wide it can be hard to see the edge of the field. The 4.5mm Morpheus is sharper than the Ethos SX, by a hair. At 580 grams, it is the heaviest of the 82 set. Edited by Alex Swartzinski, 05 March 2023 - 11:02 PM. The grades represent the following assessments of the examination performances: Talent Development, Scholarships and Awards, Verification of Study Periods for Pension Insurance, Mission Statement and Teaching Constitution, TUM Center for Digital Leadership Development, Digital Programs of Executive and Professional Education, Office of the Senior Executive Vice President, TUMonline TUMs campus management portal, Academic and Examination Regulations (FPSO), resolution of the Kultusministerkonferenz, 1.01.5 very good: excellent performance, 1.62.5 good: performance well above average, 2.63,5 satisfactory: average performance, 3.64.0 sufficient: performance meets the standards in spite of deficiencies, from 4.1 fail: performance does not meet the standards because of substantial deficiencies. Back in my youth I worked for a company that "made" computer monitors and the OEM was required to make it to our specs, but others were not. I test ZWOs new ASIAir Mini. The result given here is non-binding, as this grade converter can only provide a general first estimation. Very fast shipping and packaging. The 16 and 7mm looked diffierent than these didn't they? Introducing the Stellarvue Optimus eyepiece series. While stars do bloat a little at the very edge, the 83 SSW comes close to matching a Nagler for optical performance, with the benefit of slightly longer 14mm eye relief and a more comfortable twist-up eyecup. Click here to create one. Pros: Great optics; wider field; comfortable eye relief and eyecup. Theres a new alternative for the Celestron NexStar SE and NexStar Evolution series tripod a short, foldable tabletop tripod. And if you like the UWANs, see my review of the WO XWA. You would recognize the names of the OEMs if I told you. Maybe the following might help: This shows the FoV for a 28mm 82 deg, a 25mm plossl, and a 7mm Xcel EP on my Orion XT8 ( 203mm/1200mm = f5.9), Jon, I 'll be needing some guidance soon; the 28/82 is on the way: using that and my 7mm Xcel as a base, I'll be upgrading/replacing the others to flesh out a "good" set. Waiting Period: We are in continuous production and operate one year in advance. The Panoptic 27mm has an even more pleasing view. LMU - Ludwig-Maximilians-Universitt Mnchen, Macromedia University of Applied Sciences, Mediadesign University of Applied Sciences. Not saying that's a bad thing, just sort of distracting. On the 2-inch focusers on my Newtonians I had to pull the eyepiece out a little in the draw tube to have it reach focus. Hmmm, looks like those four focal lengths are the only ones they make, at least for now. I've pretty much settled on 68-72 degree eyepieces. All marketing. But just as outsourcing is more desirable at times, as it is with his ED doublets or now discontinued Russian optics, it would be inane to attempt to make eyepieces when United Optical can make them as good as he can for much less cost. The A-T 28UWA/StellarVue 82 and APM 30UFF has already been mentioned in this thread. Field Stop: 13.6 mm Number of Lens Elements & Groups: 7 elements Special Features: Tapered insert tube Comes with Dust Caps? I did sell a lot of axiom LXs though, and owned the 23mm for a while and was impressed with it. Bottom Line: A superb eyepiece for 2-inch focusers. I've had a few of their scopes that are well made, and well corrected, but labeled as someone elses. Enter the maximum grade, the minimum passing grade, and your current overall grade in the grading system of your university. You currently have javascript disabled. For me, anything 60 degrees or greater feels sufficiently wide. But the twist-up mechanism in one unit I tested (which I exchanged) was loose and rattled. Faster scopes (below f5.9) are more sensitive and require more expensive EP's and a probably a coma corrector. Now if you had a more expensive 30mm EP, that FOV will remain sharper to the edge. The latter had good optical performance, but with a twist-up eyecup mechanism that was stiff and greasy in the unit I tested. I recently upgraded my 30mm that came with my Dob to a APM 30mm UFF and its a great EP. Probably not by much, if at all. This is the original 100 eyepiece and is still the standard of excellence. Another good example is the 50mm finderscope, from both WO and SV (I have both, mostly the same, both excellent). Nuff said! This was part of a 3 piece set and I won't be using this one. This is the largest and heaviest of the 1.25-inch eyepieces, with a mass of 400 grams. Might it not be that Stellarvue just have updated the specifications so that they better represents reality?

However, stars began to bloat 60 percent out from the center and were quite distorted at the edge. I find I kind of have to make myself use them more often. If the ones from Stellarvue also share these specs, then there is no doubt they come from the same assembly line. The top dust cap fits on only when the eyecup is retracted, an inconvenience. Don't dismiss buying a used EP out of the Classifieds section - I found two of mine there. I saw clear, sharp, spacious views of Jupiter and the Moon when I first tried this eyepiece, and it also works well on double stars. The Explore 100 comes a very close second to Tele Vue in sharpness, with stars sharp across 90 percent of the field and still well contained at the edge.

It obviously isn't about context in that case, it's about drift time. Bottom Line: A well-made eyepiece but costly for the performance. Cons: Soft off-axis star images. Thanks for the input, I appreciate it. Holding your eye in the proper position is way easier. It is just on the edge of being sensitive to what EP you can throw in the focuser and get good results. On my f/5 to f/6 test scopes, stars started to distort 50 percent out from the center and were quite bloated at the edge, the poorest optical performance of the group, but one thats commensurate with price. But I can't confirm, and they could be a whole new OEM same as the luminos perhaps, rather than the initial SV82 which I am pretty sure was the UWAN. Never occurred to me that they might actually be the same.

In my 80/480 refractor, I find even 50 degrees for "high" power to be quite good--e.g., Nagler 3-6 zoom. If you're not sensitive to curvature perhaps give it a go but honestly if you have on hand a 2x and a 3x barlow just get the 15mm because then you'll have all three.

He (or his expertly trained staff)machines optical tubes and adapters, polishes lenses, fabricates altazmounts, and yes his triple testing of his refractorsis now legendary! Add 1/8" if rolled up. Eyepieces with 100 apparent fields of view provide the widest actual fields possible at any given focal length (with the exception of the few 110 and 120 models on offer). That's easier with the smaller size of the 82 Naglers when compared to the 100 eyepieces, however I'm working on that. display: none !important; See William Paolinis review of all six Morpheus eyepieces here, and his full review of the Morpheus 17.5mm eyepiece here.
