Tweedledee Posted May 2, 2016 Share Posted May 2, 2016 Just found this monster on the APM website, it is a massive 1.7 kilo 80mm 52 degree 3" eyepiece with a 70mm field stop... http://www.apm-telescopes.de/en/eyepieces/less-than-60-fov/ploessl/kokusai-kohki-3-inch-barrel-masuyama-80mm-eyepiece.html It is a handsome looking eyepiece with a handsome price of over £1700! Anyone got an F14 plus scope with a 3" focuser? Smithysteve 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc Posted May 2, 2016 Share Posted May 2, 2016 (edited) I once saw a complete set of Masuyuma eyepieces on an American forum, I cannot remember the exact cost but it was about $15k. Apparently there is only a few complete sets in the world. Would love to try this one though. Edited May 2, 2016 by Doc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tweedledee Posted May 2, 2016 Author Share Posted May 2, 2016 You don't see many Masuyama eps in the UK. They seem to have an excellent reputation for high class optics, and I think their newer eps look rather smart with a different style to most.
