TeleVue Ethos 6mm - 6mm XWA Eyepiece

TeleVue Ethos 6mm - 6mm XWA Eyepiece

The TeleVue Ethos 6mm is a premium wide-angle eyepiece that will take your observations to a completely new level. With an impressive 100° field of view And with a focal length of 6 mm, you'll experience an almost boundless view of the universe. This eyepiece is designed for demanding observers who expect maximum image quality, contrast, and edge sharpness – even with fast telescopes.

TeleVue is known for its uncompromising optical quality, and the Ethos series is an excellent example of this. The result: an intense, three-dimensional image without a distracting tunnel effect.

A field of vision without borders

Whereas classic eyepieces often offer 50° to 60°, the Ethos series literally opens a new window on the sky. With a 100° field of view, you see considerably more surroundings around your object. Compared to an 82° eyepiece, you gain about 50% extra visible field.

This not only provides an impressive experience but is also practical for Dobson telescopes without tracking motors. Objects remain in view longer before you need to adjust. The effect is immersive: you're not looking at an image, you're in the middle of it.

Exceptional sharpness, even with fast systems

The advanced optical design and high-quality multi-coatings provide a bright, high-contrast, and sharp image across the entire field of view. Even at fast aperture ratios like f/4, edge sharpness is excellently maintained.

With a 6mm focal length, this eyepiece is ideal for higher magnifications. Think of subtle structures on the lunar surface, fine details on planets during good seeing conditions, or compact deep-sky objects where contrast and sharpness are crucial.

The combination of 1.25" and 2" connections makes this eyepiece versatile. The soft, fold-down eyecup ensures comfortable viewing, even during extended sessions.
