Eyepieces in 1.25" and 2" – choose the right focal length and field of view

The eyepiece determines the magnification together with the telescope focal length and has a major influence on the field of view and viewing comfort. In this category you will find 1.25-inch and 2-inch eyepieces with different focal lengths and apparent fields of view – from classic Plössl eyepieces to wide-angle, ultra-wide-angle and zoom eyepieces. The right choice depends on your telescope and the objects you want to observe. A shorter focal length gives higher magnification, while a longer focal length provides a wider view and is often helpful for finding deep-sky objects.
