Eyepiece Pentax XW 10mm 1,25"
Eyepieces Pentax
High performance wide angle eyepieces for use with high quality telescopes.
XW Series
Clear, comfortable viewing assured by a 70° apparent viewing angle and 20mm eye relief.
All PENTAX XW smc series eyepieces feature an extra-wide 70-degree apparent viewing angle and extra-long 20mm eye relief to provide a fascinating wide-perspective image.
High-grade optics for exceptional image quality.
The high-performance optics of the XW series incorporate ultra-low dispersion, high-refractive lanthanum glass elements to produce a well-balanced image with minimal aberrations. It is specially designed to reduce the annoying blackout effect by effectively compensating for spherical aberration of the pupil.
PENTAX original multilayer coating for excellent light transmission efficiency.
All lens surfaces that come into contact with air are treated with the original multilayer coating, while all laminated surfaces are treated with the innovative partial coating to provide light transmission efficiency of over 90% (an astonishing 96% at 550 nm) over the visible light spectrum.
Advanced light-shielding technology for enhanced image contrast.
Thanks to PENTAX's advanced computer simulation technology, the XW series features a light-shielding diaphragm in the most effective position to dramatically reduce internal reflections for a brighter, higher-contrast image.
A choice of four magnifications to meet specific applications.
With four different magnifications (7mm, 10mm, 14mm and 20mm) to choose from, the XW series suits a wide range of both casual and specialized applications.
Weatherproof construction for all-weather viewing.
The XW series features JIS Class 4* weatherproof construction, allowing use in drizzle or under night dew.
* The XW series eyepieces are not designed for underwater use and should not be submerged underwater.
The XW3.5 and XW5 models are designed exclusively for astronomical observations.
The XW series features a wide apparent angle of view (70 degrees), JIS Class 4 weatherproof construction, and a long eye relief (20 mm). The optics, incorporating low-dispersion, high-refractive lanthanum glass elements and a PENTAX-original multi-coating, deliver bright, high-resolution images with minimal aberrations and distortions.
