APM HDC XWA 20mm 100° 2″ Eyepiece
The APM HDC XWA 20mm eyepiece represents the pinnacle of wide-angle eyepieces for astronomers. With an incredible 100-degree field of view, it allows you to experience completely new sensations when observing the starry sky. Thanks to advanced optical technologies and precise manufacturing, it offers exceptional image quality that will satisfy even the most demanding astronomers. This eyepiece is an ideal choice for those who want to maximize their telescope's potential and explore the universe in its full beauty.
Advanced Optical Design
The optical construction of the eyepiece is designed with emphasis on minimizing optical aberrations and maximizing light transmission. All lenses feature multi-layer anti-reflective coating across their entire surface, ensuring excellent contrast and suppressing unwanted reflections. Reduced chromatic aberration means that stars and other objects remain sharp and free from color fringing even at high magnifications. Lens edges and all internal components are carefully blackened, eliminating light scatter and ensuring clean images without flares or shadows.
Durable Construction and Weather Protection
The eyepiece barrel is made from high-quality materials and is fully anodized in black, providing high resistance to scratches and mechanical damage. The waterproof design allows use even in challenging weather conditions, so astronomers don't need to worry about their equipment's functionality. The eyepiece features 2″ filter threads, significantly expanding observation possibilities for various types of objects using specialized filters.
Versatile Photography Capabilities
One of the most significant features of this eyepiece is the removable eyecup, beneath which lies an M44.5 x 0.75 OD thread designed for camera attachment. This function makes the eyepiece a universal tool that can be used not only for visual observation but also for astrophotography. Thanks to this modification capability, the eyepiece becomes a future investment, as it can adapt to the changing needs of astronomers.
