Omegon Redline SW 22 mm Eyepiece 70° (2 inch)

Omegon Redline SW 22 mm eyepiece 70° (2 inch): 70 degree field of view with ED optics

The Omegon Redline SW 22 mm combines a 70-degree field of view with an ED lens element and a generous 20 mm eye distance. Low magnification with maximum light transmission for large deep-sky objects.

This focal length has a 2-inch mount: this is the only way the wide field edge, which makes this field of view possible, will fit.

ED optics for color purity

The ED element keeps color errors low, and the multi-layer coating on all air-to-glass transitions maximizes light transmission. The result is a sharp, high-contrast image all the way to the edge, even on faster telescopes.

20 mm eye relief and 70 degrees

This combination is what the Redline is known for: the wide field of view of a wide-angle eyepiece combined with the relaxed viewing experience that eyeglass wearers need. On a Dobsonian telescope without a tracking motor, objects stay in view significantly longer.

Ready for photography

Under the eyepiece is an M43 thread. You can use this with an adapter to connect an eyepiece projection camera, for example, for moon photography with a system camera.

What do you see with 22 mm?

On a 200/1200 Dobson, 22 mm gives a magnification of 55x with approximately 1.3 degrees of real field of view. The Orion Nebula and the Andromedan Nebula are visible with their surroundings.

The 2 inch frame gives the field edge the space that this image needs.

Featured accessories

The Redline series ranges from 3.5 to 32mm with the same eye relief and eye distance: a set of two or three focal lengths covers everything from planetary detail to overview. An Omegon moon filter dims the bright moon image at longer focal lengths.
