The combination of long focal length and wide field provides the largest possible patch of sky in a single view: extended nebulae, star fields, and the Milky Way at their finest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The five-element design is multi-coated and the lens edges are blackened to prevent stray light. With 28 mm of eye relief, viewing is comfortable, even with glasses, and the fold-down eyecup can be adjusted to your preferred viewing position. The filter thread accepts 2-inch filters directly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-3 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\"><figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.telescoop.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/William-Optics-40mm-2-SWAN-Oculair.jpg\" alt=\"William Optics SWAN 40 mm 2 inch eyepiece\" title=\"\"><\/figure><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Which telescopes<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The eyepiece requires a 2-inch focuser or diagonal.
