Omegon Premium Flatfield 10.5 mm Eyepiece 60° (1.25 inch): flat field of view with ED optics
The Omegon Premium Flatfield 10.5 mm delivers on its name: a flat field of view where stars remain point-like even at the edge. The planetary all-rounder of the series with a medium-high magnification.
The series corrects the field curvature that makes most eyepieces blurry at the edge, and the ED lens element keeps the color reproduction pure. Even on fast Newtons around f/5, the edge remains sharp.
Flat field, high contrast
The optical construction with an ED element and multi-layer coating on all air-to-glass transitions delivers a sharp image with high contrast. Objects that drift to the edge retain their shape and sharpness.
Pleasant insight, parfocal series
With an interpupillary distance of 16 mm, you can observe relaxedly, without black shadows if your eye is slightly off-axis. The series is parfocal: changing the focal length requires hardly any refocusing.
The 1.25-inch barrel has filter threads for moon and color filters.
What do you see with 10.5 mm?
On a telescope with a 900 mm brand focal length, 10.5 mm gives a magnification of 86x, and on a 200/1200 Dobson it gives 114x. Jupiter's cloud bands and Saturn's rings come through well.
Even globular clusters show their grainy structure against a stark field.
Featured accessories
The Premium Flatfield series ranges from 5.5 to 25mm and is parfocal: two or three focal lengths form a complete set. An Omegon moon filter (1.25 inch) dims the bright moon image at longer focal lengths.
For whom yes and for whom no
- ✓ Observers with fast telescopes (f/5) who value edge sharpness
- ✓ To see stars as pinpoints to the edge instead of smeared
- ✓ Owners of multiple focal planes in the series: parfocal switching
- For those seeking the widest field of view: the SWA and Redline series offer 70 degrees
- ✗ Smart telescopes without interchangeable eyepieces
