Celestron (Vixen) 32mm Erfle

Hi everyone,

It pains me to part with this eyepiece, but I do need to find this old girl a new home.

For sale is a 32mm Celestron Erfle eyepiece made by Vixen (verified by the 'circle V' embossed next to the Japan marking. It is in very, very good condition with the optics in fine nick, and the body and barrle showing only few slight markings. Barrel is made of brass, so much tougher than todays' aluminium barrels. Comes with two lens caps.

The eyerelief is excellent, and the FOV approximately 50 degrees. Its image quality I'd say surpases contemporary inexpensive 32mm Plossls.

A very easy eyepiece to use.

If your scope is limited to 1.25" eyepieces, this is a fine low power eyepiece.

Asking $55 including postage in Australia.
