  • This is my review of the 6mm Ultra Wide Angle eyepiece from TS-Optics. It's a good eyepiece for planetary observations with an affordable price tag. I enjoy the views of the solar system with this eyepiece very much. If you are looking to upgrade your eyepieces, then check this review out!

    Good review which is similar to my experiences. One correction: The ONTC and UNC telescopes are indeed manufactured by Teleskop-Service with tubes made for them. I think there is even a video about this on their YT channel.

    The 15mm eyepiece of this gold line type is something I would perhaps give a pass but 6mm, 9mm and 20 mm I have found to be excellent. My samples are from the SVBONY range. (the 15 mm has quite a bit of field curvature and I find also slightly worse color aberration)

    Like! SvBony sell identical eyepieces for around 30$ or 26 euro. An unbeatable price.

    I have a couple of these under Starguider UWA, a 6mm and 15mm, both work well. I use a Moon filter if it is past 1/4. The 6mm gives me 125x and it brings Jupiter in well. The 15mm I use for some DSOs or the Moon.

      @Mountain Fisher Thanks for your input. The uwa series represents a good an adorable upgrade to the default eyepieces telescopes come with.

    Hi I need your help, wich one do you recomend between this one and Sky Watcher UWA TMB Planetary II. Wich is a little bit expensive but I'm in doubt. I want to buy one of 5mm TMB Planetary II, or this uwa 6mm. For planetary seeing. Thanks!

      @Hugo Gomez Hi! Between the UWA from TS-Optics and the Planetary 2 UWA from Skywatcher, I would choose the Skywatcher. I has a flatter field of view that's sharper around the edges, an adjustable eye guard and a generous 20mm of eye relief. Also the 58° FOV is more than enough for planetary observations. The optics were designed with planetary observations in mind and should give you some great views of our solar system's planets.

    The Skywatcher Gold series also has an almost identical 6 mm 66 degree eyepiece for 52 euro in Romania. The TS Optics one is 64 euro, a little more expensive.

      @3dfxvoodoocards6 The Skywatcher Goldline series seems to be identical to the one from TS Optics which makes the 52 euro a very good price indeed.

      @@BogdanDamian I have a Bresser 102/1000 mm achromat with two eyepieces (25 mm and a 10 mm). I want to buy a 5 or 6 mm eyepiece to see the planets bigger in size but in the same time not to lose clarity / image quality. Would a 5 mm eyepiece at 200x magnification be too much for a telescope like mine ? Should I buy the 5 mm at 200x or the 6 mm at 166x magnification eyepiece ? Thank you!

    • @BogdanDamian
      @BogdanDamian  8 месяцев назад

      @3dfxvoodoocards6 200x is not too much for your telescope. It's at the limit, but it should work well. You can go for the 5mm eyepiece.

    What you thinking about TS binocular 15x70? I think there is no big difference in quality between TS 15x70 and Celestron sky Master 15x70? 🤔🤔🤔

      @Jokssa84 Hello! By the looks of it, they are one and the same binocular only with different branding. The specs are the same - BK4 prisms, multi coated optical surfaces etc. I think that they are good for astronomy and will help you find objects in the night sky much easier.

    What focal length eyepiece in 66 degree afov would be the best for a fast scope f5 short focal length

    • @BogdanDamian
      @BogdanDamian  3 года назад

      Up to 24mm you can get most good eyepieces and not have any problems with image aberrations. Keep in mind that the longer the focal length, the more important it is that the eyepiece has well corrected lenses. A premium eyepiece would be your safest bet here. For example the 68° series from explore scientific is good and affordable. Also I can always recommend the DeLite series from Tele Vue even if it only has 62° AFOV. 62° vs 66° isn't a big difference at all.

    Mine seems to have internal reflections. Very distracting while observing the Moon.

    • @BogdanDamian
      @BogdanDamian  3 года назад

      Sad to hear that. Mine has some internal reflections as well, but only when looking at very bright targets and under certain viewing angles. I deal with them by trying to always keep the object I'm lookin at centered. This is however hard when it comes to the Moon since it fills the whole FOV. Maybe doing a proper cleaning of the lenses can help...

      @lornaz1975 3 года назад

      @@BogdanDamian You are describing my experience too. Moon at an angle shows reflections. I think its the internal coatings. I blackened the sides of the lenses and blackened the interior of the eyepiece but no real change. I do agree it is worth the price.
