Description

The Takahashi Abbe eyepieces are true to the original Abbe design. They are fully multi-coated for maximum light transmission for increased contrast. The 44 degree apparent field of view and high contrast are perfect for lunar and planetary observing. When used with the Takahashi 2X Barlow the image field is nearly flat. The Takahashi Abbe eyepieces come in 4, 6, 9, 12.5, 18, 25 and 32 mm focal lengths.

Kevin ★★★★★

The multi-coating on this eyepiece really makes a difference—I could see subtle cloud bands on Jupiter that were just a blur before. The 44-degree field feels perfectly natural for planetary work, no distortion at the edges.

Riley J. ★★★★★

Swapped out the stock eyepiece that came with my telescope and the difference in contrast on Jupiter was immediate. The fully multi-coated optics really do cut down on glare, making the cloud bands pop. Even at this modest field of view, the image stays sharp right to the edge.

Ryan ★★★★★

The 44-degree field is plenty for lunar work, and the contrast on Jupiter’s bands stayed crisp even at high magnification. I’ve been swapping it with a wider eyepiece for quick checks, and the multi-coating keeps the view bright without any glare.
