Panoptic 19mm still available.

$215 including postage within Aust (30% below Bintel new price of $309).

AS NEW - spotless with original endcaps/packaging/box.
68° wide field with pinpoint stars from edge to edge (even in my f/5 scope).
Only selling because I seldom use this EP (as true FOV is within ~20% my Nagler 13mm).


Partial specs/description from Tele Vue are as follows:

Specifications:
Focal length: 19mm
Barrel Diameter: 31.7mm (1.25")
Apparent Field: 68°
Eye relief: 13mm
Field Stop Diameter: 21.3mm
Lens elements/grouping: 6/4
Weight: 180g

The Panoptic design is a great wide field alternative to the Nagler series. An excellent premium-quality medium to low power eyepiece.

The ED glass element offers very high contrast. An excellent eyepiece for galaxies, globular clusters and lunar surface detail.

Size, weight and performance make the 19mm an ideal mid power choice. Parfocal with 15mm and other smaller Plössls and Naglers.

Cheers,
Jeff
