EYEPIECES
A wide range of eyepieces are available for use with IS WP Fieldscopes. Choosing the best eyepiece is often confusing but making the right choice will depend on price and application. It is important to remember that the eyepiece is an integral part of the whole set-up and opting for a lower quality lens will make a difference to the overall image quality derived from the fieldscope.
IS EYEPIECES
Dedicated long eyerelief eyepieces and best overall choice as a first eyepiece. If you want a zoom eyepiece and getting the 'highest' top end magnification is not essential, choose 40919S over 40918S as resolution, contrast and field of view are all superior. Eyepieces screw directly onto telescope bodies. Eyepieces in table marked * have a twist-type eyecup.
