Offering a perfect blend of magnification, comfort, and wide-field clarity, the Explore Scientific 14mm 62° Series Eyepiece is a go-to choice for mid-power celestial observation. Whether you're examining intricate lunar surface features, scanning rich star clusters, or exploring subtle details in planetary nebulae, this eyepiece delivers high-contrast, immersive views.
With a 62° apparent field of view, it offers a rich visual experience that’s ideal for deep-sky observing without feeling cramped. The flat-field design ensures edge-to-edge sharpness, while EMD multi-coatings and edge-blackened optics minimize glare and enhance contrast—especially under dark skies.
Its near-parfocal construction makes it easy to swap between eyepieces in the same series with minimal refocusing. Designed for rugged field use, the argon-purged waterproof body protects against fogging, moisture, and contaminants to maintain long-term optical clarity.
