The 6.7mm 82 degree eyepiece is great for planetary detail, and does not require the perfect seeing conditions needed for higher magnifications. When using this eyepiece with big refractors, it will often be the ultimate eyepiece under normal viewing conditions. Messier 1, the Crab Nebula with our 152mm telescope will astound you.  If this eyepiece is used with our 127mm refractor telescope the Dumbbell Nebula will be a perfect fit. With our 80mm telescope, this eyepiece will give you stunningly detailed views at just over 100x magnification, more than enough power to clearly make out the clouds on Jupiter, and will bring the core of Orion’s Nebula clearly into view.
Explore Ultra-Wide Eyepieces - Comfort, Quality, Value. Explore Scientific 82° Series eyepieces, with their 82° apparent field of view, immerses you in a very comfortable ultra-wide field that naturally promotes relaxation at the eyepiece. When you relax your eyes and take in the scene presented before you, it is much easier to observe for longer periods of time, and details begin to materialize that may not have become apparent to you at first glance. Another great benefit of ultra-wide eyepieces is the ease with which you can gaze, not directly at an object, but slightly to either side. This skill, called using averted vision, is especially helpful when observing faint objects, because using averted vision puts the image on a part of your eye that is more sensitive to light, allowing you to see fainter images.
