Apertura Plossl 40 mm 45° 1.25" Eyepiece
Apertura 40 mm Plossl Eyepiece - 1.25"
The Apertura 40 mm Plossl Eyepiece is a high-quality, mid-range option crafted to deliver detailed views during observation sessions. This 40 mm eyepiece is a great way to test out lower magnifications on your telescope. This 40 mm focal length makes it ideal for observing expansive targets like the Orion Nebula or the Andromeda Galaxy! This eyepiece will give you an immersive view that truly showcases the scale and vastness of the night sky.
The Apertura Plossl series eyepieces are cost-effective options without compromising on quality. While it's fun to see how high you can go without losing too much clarity, don't make the mistake of ignoring low-power views! When you use a low-power eyepiece, like this classic 40 mm Plossl, on deep-sky objects, it allows your telescope to deliver as much light as possible to your eye. This will allow you to see fainter detail than you would with a high-power view! This 40 mm eyepiece features a generous 45° Field of View, 31 mm eye relief, and a 4-element fully-coated optical design, setting Apertura’s 40 mm Plossl apart from others in its class! Beginner and intermediate astronomers will love the Apertura Plossl eyepiece series as they enhance the performance of any telescope. These Plossl eyepieces couple extremely well with the Apertura 2x 1.25" Barlow! Adding a 2x Barlow lens to your astronomy toolkit increases the overall magnification of any eyepiece by 2x, giving you exceptional versatility for all your desired targets. All while still retaining the superb 31 mm eye relief!

This 40 mm eyepiece delivers crisp, clear images of the cosmos! With thoughtful features like blackened edges, multi-coated optics, and a 1.25” filter holder, you will easily see why these are a valuable addition to any astro toolkit. Read more below!
About the Optics!
The 4-element, full-coated optical lens design not only minimizes distortion
across most of the lens, but it also aids in reducing light glare,
subsequently enhancing contrast for better low-light performance. The
generous 45° Field of View (FOV) is a step up from the standard entry-level
options that are typically around 40°. A larger FOV gives a more spacious
appearance, as opposed to tighter views that can feel as though you are
“looking through a straw”. The blackened edges top off the lineup of
stunning optical features by further minimizing any stray light that
obstructs your observations.
Quality Build!
The Apertura Plossl series eyepieces all include a 1.25” threaded chrome
barrel to allow compatibility with 1.25" threaded filters. The
Apertura 1.25" Lunar & Planetary Filter Set
is an invaluable aid in getting the most out of your observations, as they
each enhance different aspects of planetary and lunar features! These
eyepieces also include a rubber eye cup to add even more comfort and clarity
to your sessions! Overall, this eyepiece would be a great addition to your
visual collection at an exceptional value!
