Agena 2
Agena 2" Super Wide Angle (SWA) Eyepiece - 38mm
4.0
Good eyepiece
It is a good eyepiece for the price. Suitable for large star clusters, large nebulae like the laces of the Swan, but also for a global view of the Moon.

Amazing Eyepiece!
The Baader Classic Ortho eyepieces, better known as BCOs, are the new version of the legendary Baader Genuine Ortho. They come with the superb Baader's HT MultiCoatings, a wide (for an ortho it means wide indeed) field of 52º and an unbelievabl...

Good eyepiece, like the convenience.
Good eyepiece, like the convenience. Get some chromatic aberration at the edges, thick ring of fire. Contrast is lacking. Mechanism is fine.

Agena 1.25" Wireless Illuminated Reticle Eyepiece with Focusable Crosshair - 12.5mm
3.0
Good Value for Very Basic Use
OK. First, it must be said that the one I received is not an Agena logoed product. Mine is labeled Starguider(R). Agena's own is probably better built, and costs about 3 times as much. I'm not giving it 5 stars, or even 4 because of the lo...
Vixen 1.25
Vixen 1.25" LV Zoom Eyepiece 8-24mm # 3777
5.0
Cost less than the best, but performs!
Want a zoom that doesn’t break the bank, but performs like the top of the line zooms? This is it. Great eye relief and no crazy reflections like the cheapie zooms.

High Quality For Astrometrics
Solid piece of kit for the advanced user. Excellent instructions for a variety of apps. Note that the dual crosshairs are off-center for guiding use; not for polar alignment. Illumination is very adjustable. A fine astrometric instrument.

Agena 1.25" Starguider Dual ED Eyepiece - 15mm
5.0
Big improvement over Plossl eyepiece
The 15mm wide angle ED eyepiece made a huge improvement in the usability of my 6" Orion Dob. No longer do I have to keep my eye in exactly the right position -- as was the case with the 10mm Plossl eyepiece -- to be able to see anything in the s...

Great upgrade from the basic eyepieces provided with Nexstar 6SE
