Product Info

Manufacturer Description

Since their introduction in the US market a few years ago, the GSO SuperView series of wide-field eyepieces have taken the amateur astronomy community by storm. These are, by far, the best-selling GSO eyepieces. With an expansive apparent field of view (AFOV) ranging from 60 - 68 degrees, users will experience incredible views without breaking the bank or impinging on your scope's balance. SuperView eyepieces are available in 2 barrel sizes (1.25" or 2') and 5 focal lengths (ranging from 15mm to 50mm).

Images are virtually free of chromatic aberration or pincushion distortion with excellent flatness of field and eye relief. These eyepieces feature rubber grips on the housing and foldable rubber eyeguards. All eyepieces are fully multicoated, have blackened lens edges for improved contrast, and come with two end caps.

Guan Sheng is a leader in optical telescopes and accessories and their products have been sold for years by the "Big Three" (Meade, Celestron and Orion) under their own brand names. Give these a try - you will not be disappointed!

      5.0 GSO Super View Eyepieces

      Pros:

      Cons:

      Comments:

      The 15m & 20mm Superview Eyepieces couldn't be better. If you want to waste money on expensive eyepieces go ahead. I just wish they made all the standard 1.25" eyepieces I'd buy the rest of them. Guess I'll have to invest in the ED glass eyepieces GSO/Agena makes to get one or two more to round out my set. If an 8mm was available in Superview I'd own it too. Sharp & full of contrast what more could you want a really great value.

      5.0 Good buy

      Pros:

      Cons:

      Comments:

      These are a great bargain for the price. They yield close to 70o Fields with little edge distortion.
      I take a set on outings with my grab and go scope. They perform almost as well as some $250 eyepieces.
      Hard to tell the difference. Agena astro has some great bargains!

      4.0 GSO Superview

      Pros:

      Cons:

      Comments:

      I am very happy with these eyepieces. The performance-to-cost of these is very good. As a novice telescope user I am not ready to fork over a lot of money for accessories until I know I'm really committed to the hobby and I think the GSO Superviews fill an important niche.

      4.0 Great value

      Pros:

      Quality Lenses,Strong Construction,Lightweight

      Cons:

      Comments:

      Great pair of eyepieces. Really good in long-focus telescopes. 20mm needs a field stop, 15mm has one. Good combination of low-medium magnification and wide field. As good as anything you might get at double the price.

      Strong Construction,Quality Lenses

      Cons:

      I was looking for a decent set of 1.25 eyepieces for a small refractor. These work fine and were a good price.

      5.0 One of the Very Best

      Pros:

      Quality Lenses,Clarity,Strong Construction,Sharpness

      Cons:

      Comments:

      As anyone who has ever owned the GSO Super Views will tell you, these are some of the best optics you can buy. The price that Agena Astro asks for these is an incredible bargain. The views of nebula and galaxies that these eyepieces have provided me is nothing short of fantastic. You will not be disappointed in this GSO series.

      5.0 Best Budget Wide Field Eyepieces

      Pros:

      Quality Lenses,Accurate,Strong Construction

      Cons:

      Comments:

      These are my favorite budget widefields. If you can't afford the more expensive wide-field brands, you may be very happy with these for a long time. The work especially well in my SCT.
