Bresser Eyepiece Plössl PL 40mm - see more, discover more, in full clarity
The Bresser Eyepiece Plössl PL 40mm opens up your view of the sky. The long focal length allows you to see more of the night sky at once - ideal for wide overview observations of star fields, nebulae and clusters. This eyepiece is perfect if you like comfortable viewing and still want razor-sharp images.

Wide view, calmer image
With 40 mm focal length, you get low magnification and a wide field of view. This allows for relaxed observing, without having to keep adjusting. Ideal for long observations of vast deep-sky objects or to explore the Milky Way.
Clear and high-contrast image
Each lens has a multiple coating. That means fewer reflections and more light transmission. So your image remains clear, sharp and full of contrast - even in fainter objects. This allows you to see subtle details in nebulae and star clusters that are often lost with simple eyepieces.
Comfortable looking, sustainably built
The soft, folding eyecup blocks distracting light and makes viewing comfortable, even for longer sessions. The sturdy metal body feels solid and is designed for years of use. Inside, the eyepiece is finished completely black to minimize reflections - so you only see what matters.
What to expect
✓ Moon: wide, sharp display with realistic shadows
✓ Deep-sky: large nebulae and star clusters visible in their entirety
✓ Planets: smaller, but bright and contrasty
✗ High magnification: not intended for fine detail work on planets
