CT UWA (Ultra Wide Angle) Eyepieces - 66° Field of
View - Fully Multi-Coated - Blackened Lens Edges is a 4 -element premium symmetrical Plössl optical design.
We put all our know-how and experience into the
development of these eyepieces. The result is the ultimate low-cost, high
performance wide-angle eyepiece.
The new CT UWA are powerful all-purpose eyepieces
for all fields of amateur astronomy. This Canadian
Telescopes 6mm Ultra-Wide Angle, Multi-Coated, Long Eye Relief eyepiece offers
a generous 66º apparent field of view and an eye relief of between 13 to 17mm.
It provides a crisp, sharp image right across the field. Rubber eyepieces are
included for viewing comfort and to exclude extraneous light. Available in 6mm,
9mm, 15mm and 20mm focal lengths. The barrel is threaded to accept
standard 1.25” filters.
Lunar and Planetary Observations
Our CT UWA Series features an excellent contrast .
As a result you will be able to discern tiny details that would go unnoticed in
many other eyepiece designs. Another big advantage over simpler eyepiece
designs is the CT UWA's comfortable eye relief down to the high-power 6mm focal
length.
Any eyepiece loses light on each lens surface due
to reflections. In simple wide angle eyepieces this would normally result in
dim and somewhat 'boring' images. Our CT UWA eyepieces are fully multi-coated:
A multicoating on each lens surface effectively prevents reflections and thus
maximizes light transmission.
Deep Sky Observations
Images will be surprisingly bright, you will
therefore see additional details especially in dim objects like nebulae and
galaxies. At the same time the large field of view helps in discerning extended
structures within those nebulae and galaxies. Just compare a bright open
cluster somewhere within our milky-way: It's just more beautiful in a wide
angle eyepiece!
Astro-Imaging
Our CT UWA series eyepieces are ideally suited for
eyepiece projection. You will soon value their great contrast and image
brightness.
