Meade 1.25" Wireless Illuminated Reticle Astrometric Eyepiece - MA 12mm # 07069
Essential reticle for alignment
The reticle etching is beautiful, and useful for making astrometric measurements. It gets more use as a nice, illuminated source of cross hairs when I am performing alignment. It's difficult to get a cap to stay on the eyecup, but that's n...

Agena 1.25" Cheshire Collimating Eyepiece for Refractors
Short Cheshire collimating eyepiece
I bought this item to work with a short range magnifier as a refractor collimation tool. It works well for this application.

Baader 1.25" Classic Orthoscopic Eyepiece - 10mm # BCO-10 2954110
Amazing eyepieces!
I own the Orion premium binoviewers so I decided buy a pair of the 6mm as well as a pair of the 10mm. These are REALLY great eyepieces! (whether binoviewing or not... I did both.) Really sharp details of both Jupiter and Saturn. I viewed both of thes...

Agena 1.25" Wireless Illuminated Reticle Eyepiece with Focusable Crosshair - 12.5mm
Great for the price
I relied on multiple reviews from various sources before making this purchase. I bought it strictly to help align my SkyQuest Intelliscope and it helps do that very well. It's easy to use, and I do like the double illuminated cross hairs. One of...

Baader 1.25" Classic Orthoscopic Eyepiece - 6mm # BCO-6 2954106
Good
Generally pleased with this small eyepiece. As with most high mag pieces, it's best on clear good seeing nights. Focus requires some precision so if your focuser has fine adjustment all the better. I was concerned the relatively narrow 50-degree...

Agena 1.25" Cheshire Collimating Eyepiece for Refractors
Worked Perfectly
This Cheshire Collimating Eyepiece was very simple to use ... a very bright image even with a small LED flashlight. I thought that the reflections might be difficult to interpret, but they were quite sharp, and I was able to accurately align my 7&quo...

Celestron 1.25" Omni Plossl Eyepiece - 32mm # 93323
Sharp and Well Made
This eyepiece is a bargain for the price. It is sharp across the field, and solidly built. I use it on all my telescopes to get beautiful wide field views.

Explore Scientific 1.25" 62° Series LER Argon-Purged Waterproof Eyepiece - 20mm
Good Purchase
The first 1.25” eyepiece that I have bought for my 80s era orange tube C90. Have had one chance to use it so far, and I am encouraged with the results. Paired the Explore Scientific 20mm 62 degree eyepiece with a focal reducer. The eye relief was g...

Agena 1.25" Cheshire Collimating Eyepiece for Refractors
Excellent Cheshire
A friend recommended this for refractor collimation, despite already having a long tube Cheshire I tried this one. The relatively tiny view hole and rubber eye cup really helped make refractor collimation much easier. Typical Agena Astro high qualiy...

Agena 1.25" Starguider Dual ED Eyepiece - 12mm
Nice 12mm eye piece
This is the first eyepiece I've added to my 8" Zhumell dob beyond the included 9 and 30mm ep's. It produces bright, clean images to my inexpert eye with good eye relief and easy to focus. On my telescope it plays well with my 2x Celest...

Baader 1.25" Classic Orthoscopic Eyepiece - 18mm # BCO-18 2954118
Perhaps the best planetary eyepieces ever produced in this price range
I've owned the Baader Classic Ortho set for over a year now, and have put them to task on planets time and time again in a plethora of instruments from newts, to dobs, to maks, to SCTs, and achros to apos. All of the BCOs provide razor-sharp, cr...

Baader 1.25" & 2" Morpheus 76° Wide-Field Eyepiece - 9mm # 2954209
Great eyepiece....
Hard to beat the Morpheus line of EPs. They have a nice wide field that you can actually use due to the excellent eye relief. They are sharp and are not overly heavy so they dont tax your focuser or scope balance. They are priced fairly too. Highly r...

Tele Vue 1.25" DeLite Eyepiece - 18.2mm
Great Concept and Value
Having a 62-degree apparent field this eyepiece (and the others in DeLite line) still provide a wide field of view. However, they're significantly smaller in size and lighter in weight than the eyepieces in Tele Vue's Delos and Ethos but th...
