EXPLORE SCIENTIFIC 62° LER Eyepiece 32mm Ar

Testbericht zu den 62° LER Okularen

Von Thorsten Zeiger, Volkssternwarte Niederrhein

Bei einem sehr guten Seeing konnten wir, die Volkssternwarte Niederrhein, endlich unsere neuen Okulare der 62° Serie von Explore Scientific ausprobieren. Dies habe ich mal gleich zum Anlass genommen, über die Erfahrungen und Tests zu berichten.

Ich fange mal mit der Verpackung an. Die Okulare liegen gut geschützt, quasi "wohl gebettet" in einem Karton mit jeweils passender Schaumstoffauskleidung. Sehr gut geeignet, wenn man öfters und schnell mal bei der Beobachtung zwischen verschiedenen Okularen wechselt. Wir haben uns direkt für alle sieben erhältlichen Größen entschieden.

Beim Auspacken fiel schon vorher die sehr gute Verarbeitung der Okulare auf. Die Steckhülsen, bei den 40mm und 32mm in 2", bei den anderen Größen in 1 1/4" Ausführung, laufen am oberen Ende konisch zu, sodass ein Herausfallen bei gelöster Klemmschraube verhindert wird. Wir benutzen ein 14" Schmidt-Cassegrain GPS auf Säule und Polhöhenwiege. Dazu ein Zenitprisma, und gerade hier ist es wichtig, ein Herausfallen des Okulars zu verhindern. 

Nun aber zu Wesentlichen:

Optische Eigenschaften

Die optischen Eigenschaften sind erstaunlich. Die Schärfe und Farbtreue bis an den Bildrand (wichtig bei bildausfüllenden Beobachtungen wie Mond oder Sternhaufen) beeindrucken.

Einblickverhalten

Das Einblickverhalten ist auch für Brillenträger tadellos, da man sehr gut beim Abstand zur Linse variieren kann, ohne "etwas zu verpassen". Alle Okulare sind mit ausklappbaren Augenmuscheln bestückt. 

Preis-Leistung

Da wir im Besitz einiger Okulare aus den verschiedenen Preissegmenten unterschiedlicher Hersteller sind, können wir die Qualitäten sehr gut beurteilen und vergleichen.

Fazit

Ich kann sagen, dass dem Hersteller hier ein großer Wurf gelungen ist, sowohl optisch wie auch verarbeitungsmäßig qualitativ hochwertige Okulare auf den Markt gebracht zu haben.

Warning notes
  • General safety instructions DANGER Risk of eye injuries! Never look directly at the sun or near the sun through this device. There is a risk of blindness! Children should only use the device under supervision. Keep packaging materials (plastic bags, rubber bands, etc.) away from children! There is a risk of suffocation! FIRE HAZARD! Do not expose the device – especially the lenses – to direct sunlight! The light concentration could cause fires. RISK of material damage! Do not dismantle the device! In case of a defect, please contact your dealer. They will contact the service center and may send the device in for repair. Do not expose the device to temperatures above 60°C!
  • Never look at the sun through an eyepiece/telescope without a certified protection filter. A moon filter can never be used for solar observation. The moon filter is only suitable for moon observation. The solar filter must be mounted in front of the telescope opening, not at the eyepiece. Otherwise, the concentrated light beam through the optics will immediately destroy the filter foil, leading to severe eye damage, including permanent blindness.
  • Never leave the optics unattended. Children and inexperienced adults could point the telescope at the sun without proper precautions and lose their eyesight.
  • Do not expose the device to high temperatures.

The visual effect of these new 6,5mm 82° LER eyepieces with their long eye-relief and their 82° apparent field is truly a full-immersion experience.  Your eye is relaxed, allowing you to easily use the averted vision technique to study faint details across a huge field-of-view. The 82° Series eyepieces come with foldable eyecups make handling and using in the field easy. As experienced astronomers know, eye comfort is critical when trying to observe at the visual limits of the telescope. To keep internal reflections to a minimum, all internal surfaces of the eyepiece barrel are flat black, as well as the edges of the lenses themselves to minimize the scattering of light within the lenses themselves.These eyepieces are the choice for observers wearing glasses - with excellent performance and durability. The patented EMD-coating produces high contrast images and prevents reflexes and ghosting. The argon purging effectively prevents internal fogging, and you don´t have to deal with dirt, fungus or cleansing fluids getting between the lenses. The eyepieces are sealed - this makes sure you will be able to enjoy these eyepieces for many years to come.Comfort, Quality, Value. The Explore Scientific 82° LER Series Most short focal length eyepieces are excellent flat-field multi-element oculars that can transform your visual astronomy experience.  These extreme wide field eyepieces are optimized to produce high contrast and high resolution characteristics.SPECIFICATIONSLarge eye distance, large field and great image sharpnessExcellent viewing position for people with glassesExcellent field sharpness even with fast optics82° apparent field of viewArgon-purging prevents internal fogging, the sealing facilitates cleaningPatented EMD"-coating to maximize contrastBlackened lens edges to avoid reflexesAll eyepieces of this series are parfocalStainless steel barrel with conical security cutoffDust covers and protective bag includedSCOPE OF DELIVERY82° EyepieceDust coversProtective bag

Explore Scientific ReflexSight LED Finder
A new take on a classic design, superior to the usual red dot finder - which will fit many telescopes and larger binoculars.Explore Scientific ReflexSight™ LED projection viewfinder, uses proven functionality with versatility, while having enhanced performance features.Looking through this viewfinder shows multiple deep red target circles projected against the night sky.  Both eyes can be used for quick and easy star hopping, in order to target objects in your telescope. The big advantage is that you can see the entire night sky without magnification and not just a small section of the sky, as you would through a magnified finderscope.  This makes Goto aligning quick and easy and speeds up acquisition of targets.New "Multi-Dot" target circle pattern (in standard circle diameters of 4.0 degrees, 2.0 degrees and 0.5 degrees), prevents blocking of stars within the field of view.  Using the widths of the projected circles as reference points allows those users with non-goto telescopes to easily work out the location of non-visible targets, with reference to more easily visible stars.  The projection screen size is a generous 55 x 35 mm.Multiple mounting options. The Explore Scientific ReflexSight™ LED projection viewfinder's base fits standard "Vixen-style dovetail" finder bases, allowing the user to attach this finder to a wife array of commercially-available telescopes, without modifying the telescope itself. A ¼ inch x 20G threaded adapter (photo tripod thread) is built into the finder base, allowing the finder to be attached to a variety of telescopes, via piggyback camera adapters with a photo tripod threaded hole.Functional design and intuitive use: the smooth housing, with no sharp corners, prevents snagging. Easily accessible battery compartment, taking 2x standard AAA alkaline batteries (not included), which power the frugal LED illuminator. The low power consumption of the LED lighting ensures a long operating time. Large, continuously adjustable brightness control with knurled knob head can be easily operated with gloves. Click the rotary switch to turn off completely. Rear-facing, tool-free three-point parallax knurled collimation knobs, again, easy to operate even with gloved hands, ensure you are well locked-on to the main optical axis of your telescope. The projection screen is coated, to minimise annoying reflections and allow you to concentrate on the finder's target and the night sky behind it.  Comes complete with screen and optics cover. The extremely compact design allows mounting even on small, lightweight telescopes - truly a finder for all!FEATURESReflexSight LED projection finder with deep red target circles Standard circle diameters 4.0 degrees, 2.0 degrees and 0.5 degreesProjection screen size: 55 x 35 mmFits standard Vixen-style dovetail finder shoes There is also a ¼ inch x 20G female photo tripod thread in the base Can be mounted via piggyback camera adapters etc. Operates on standard AAA batteries (not included) Smooth housing with no sharp corners, prevents snagging Comes complete with optics and screen cover Compact design and easily accessible battery compartment Large, continuously adjustable brightness control with knurled knob Click switch to turn off completely Tool-free three-point collimation parallax adjustment with easily accessible knurled knobs Can also be mounted on small and light telescopes WHAT'S INCLUDEDReflexSight LED projection finder
