TS Optics High End Planetary HR 8mm 58° 1.25″ eyepiece
Are you looking for an eyepiece that can show you Saturn's rings in full detail, reveal the cloud bands of Jupiter, or take you deep into distant nebulae? The TS Optics High End Planetary HR 8mm is exactly the tool you have been waiting for. As part of the well-proven Planetary HR series from Teleskop Service, this eyepiece offers an excellent balance of optical performance, smart design, and observing comfort - both for visual astronomers and for photographers using the projection method.
Optical quality across the full field of view
The Planetary HR 8mm eyepiece is designed with a focus on the highest image quality across the entire field of view. The on-axis image is sharp and high in contrast. But what truly separates a quality eyepiece from an average one is how it performs toward the edges - and the Planetary HR handles this with ease. The lenses are treated with multi-layer anti-reflection coatings (multi-coating), which minimize unwanted reflections, increase light transmission, and ensure accurate color reproduction. The result is a bright, sharp, and detailed image that will satisfy even an experienced observer.
Comfortable viewing - with or without glasses
The 16mm eye relief is one of the key features of this eyepiece. It allows you to observe comfortably without removing your glasses - which is especially appreciated by those who wear glasses for astigmatism or other vision corrections. The large 20mm eyepiece barrel diameter, combined with soft rubber eyecups, provides ergonomic and fatigue-free viewing even during long observing sessions.
This planetary eyepiece with a 58° field of view offers a clear and spacious view that makes it easier to track moving objects and study fine details on planetary disks.
Versatile use - planets, the Moon, and deep sky
The Planetary HR series is primarily designed for observing planets, the Moon, and deep sky objects, but its use does not stop there. The eyepiece is fully compatible with projection photography using a DSLR camera or a compact camera, making it a versatile tool for astrophotographers who want to capture planetary details or the lunar surface with maximum resolution. The standard 1.25″ barrel diameter ensures compatibility with the vast majority of telescopes and accessories available on the market.
