32mm Baader Plossl – An Premium Experience

Exceptional quality, wide-view eyepiece without surprises.  The build quality of these eyepieces are second to none, and you will be impressed with the quality for such a low price.

HT-MC-coated – Parfocal eyepieces with a very high transmission, very good contrast and thus a very clear field of view, free of distortions. The multi-coating eliminates almost all internal reflections. The eyepieces provide 50° apparent field (6/10/18mm Ortho), sharp field stops and excellent ergonomics for comfortable observing.

Classic optical design of orthoscopic eyepieces

The lens assembly consists of a triplet-element and one plano-convex eye lens, so there are only four glass-air-surfaces. The interior has been blackened for a very good suppression of stray light. Of course, the hard anodised barrel has got a filter thread.

Looking into the eyepieces, you’ll see the effect of the anti-relex-coating and the blackened lens edges. The coating is so good that it seems like there are no lenses at all! On our optical bench, we couldn’t find any disadvantages compared to so-called “planetary eyepieces” which cost five times more.

The eyepieces use the same glasses and the same optical design as the old orthoscopic Zeiss Jena eyepieces.

The 32mm-Plössl-eyepiece is the perfect eyepiece for a large field of view at telescopes with 1,25″-focuser; eyepieces with longer focal lengths don’t provide a larger field of view (but a smaller apparent field).

User Comments

“Great eyepiece. Excellent optics, Nice clear view. Perfect for a finder and star hopping eyepiece.” Jeffery

“The Baader 32mm has better contrast than the GSO equivalent. The field stop has a wide range of focus. If you want a wider field, you can thread out the field stop, and the Baader will have as wide a field as other Plössls. I left the field stop in place with mine, as it makes for more comfortable viewing.” – Peter
