Baader 1.25" & 2" Hyperion Eyepiece - 5mm # HYP-5 2454605
Great Eyepiece
The Baader Planetarium Hyperion series are stellar in every way. The 5mm was my first EP of this series. Construction is very sturdy and the coatings are second to none. Be aware the 5mm and 3.5mm EP's may over power your scope so choose with care. Y...

Agena 2" Ultra Wide Angle (UWA) Eyepiece - 30mm
Agena Astro 30mm UWA EP
This is a great EP for the money and it gives beautiful wide field views in a slow focal ratio scope. I haven't compared it to the TV Nagler 31 or UWAN 28 but I'm very satisfied with it. The only problem with it is some softness towards the edge of t...

GSO 2" SuperView Eyepiece - 30mm
Another review of the 30mm Superview EP
Just wanted to add that the other review of this eyepiece is almost exactly the same as my own. The 30 mm does a little better on my 8" F/6 dob than in my F/5. It makes a good finder eyepiece and gives decent views to the edge with stars of low magni...

I won this eyepiece during the summer this year and did not have a chance to use it until last night. I must tell you I was very pleasantly surprised in the quality of views that I saw. What a bargain this eyepiece is on today's market - an outright ...

Baader 1.25" & 2" Hyperion Eyepiece - 21mm # HYP-21 2454621
This thing works!
I bought this as I didn't have a 2" eyepiece that I was satified with for use with my 14" F/4.7 (fast) dob. While it shows a little distortion at the edges, it is flat with pinpoint stars across most of the field. Better than my 2" MK70 and my Koni...

Baader 1.25" & 2" Hyperion Eyepiece - 8mm # HYP-8 2454608
Nice Eyepiece!
I bought this after I purchased their 21mm and liked it. Like the 21mm, this gives a broad flat field with pinpoint stars out to near the edge with my 14" F/4.7 Dob. I can see a bit of distortion at the edge, but less than my other eyepieces. That...

Agena 2" Ultra Wide Angle (UWA) Eyepiece - 15mm
A very good value.
A good value at a great price. It is hard to beat in price, but it is not a Nagler, Uwan or a UWA. Intended for medium to slow scopes. Edges get very soft the faster the scope is. I love it for public star parties so I don't worry about my expensive ...

Agena 2" Ultra Wide Angle (UWA) Eyepiece - 30mm
A real bargain
For the modest price, this EP performs well. But keep the price in mind. I was looking for public star party eyepieces and wanted a WOW fov as so many people use plossls for public use and nobody says WOW. This eyepiece is very good almost to the ed...

Agena 32mm SWA
...It's definitely a keeper!!! I just came back inside from my first light with this eyepiece. Because my sole purpose was to evaluate the EP (and because my sliver of sky visible is rather small), I spent my time on just a few targets that I though...

Agena 2" Ultra Wide Angle (UWA) Eyepiece - 20mm
Nice bright & wide field -my favorite EP
This is my first wide angle eyepiece, and I've only tested in in a 8" f/10 SCT (my Nexstar 8 GPS), but it is my favorite eyepiece by far. Some people have warned that these eyepieces aren't as sharp as some much pricier ones at the edge, but I haven...

I bought this after doing some research for a cost effective wide view 2" eyepiece. I found this to be the same e.p. as the the 1rpd and Moonfish for a little less. I purchased it and absolutely love it. I have used it in C11 and C8 SCT scopes. The s...

Baader 8mm Hyperion
For those of you that have trouble buying high dollar eyepieces I would suggest you take a serious look at the 8mm Hyperion. This eyepiece is a great performer on all objects I used it on. While it's definitely not a Nagler or Pentax XL, for the mone...

Great Versatile Eyepiece
Because I've always considered Astronomy a "hobby", I've always looked for a bargain when it came to purchasing accessories for the telescopes I've owned over the years. Thanks to Baader Planetarium, 'm pleased to say I recently bought at least two q...

The Definition of "Bang for Buck"
I actually got this eyepiece free with a scope purchase and was a bit surprised at its performance. No, it couldn't compete with my premium eyepieces costing 6 times as much, but when you consider that these eyepieces sell for little more than an ord...

Let's face it, there are times when you just want to get the widest possible FOV you can from your favorite scope. In my case this was an Orion 100mm f/6 achromat. The low cost candidate for this mission was the GSO SuperView 42mm 2" eyepiece. Built...
