Review: Panoptic-like performance; excellent value! Check for specks when barlowed. Adorama delivers! - Outstanding optics, sharp across entire field of view and compact form factor. Pair purchased for maxbright binoviewer works well. Compliments my 19mm televue panoptic pair and practically on par but for color tone. Highly pleased! (Note: one eyepiece has sunspot-like specks within, most noticable when barlowed and will be returned. Update: received second ES68 24mm eyepiece and it performs properly and without specks. Well done Adorama, thanks!
Review: Wonderful Eyepiece for Exploring Space - I really love this EP. It's the second 'serious' one I've bought away from my kit. It's huge to look through and flat enough for me. Very sharp and has gotten me out more often because of it's views. If you're looking for a good eyepiece in this range then get this one. I have a XCel LX 12mm that I like and with this wide fov it feels like I'm looking at the same image almost.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is it 2" or 1.25" ? This is an important data!**
A: The 16mm is a 1.25

**Q: Does anybody know how this eyepeice compares to the TeleVue 24mm Panoptic in terms of performance, light transmission, sharpness, etc?**
A: The Explore Scientific is a superb eyepiece. Even light transmission, tack sharp images right up to the edge of the field. Furthermore the FOV and eyecup to block out any outside light are a great asset. I can't compare to the TeleVue because I never used one. I'm sure the differences are extremely minor, except for the price difference!

**Q: Do you all actually test every eyepiece in a meter of water for 30 minutes?**
A: Yes, each eyepiece is tested exactly as stated – at least 30 minutes in 1 meter of water.

**Q: I am ordering an 8" Orion Intelliscope which comes with 1.25 eyepiece..........will I need an adapter ring to use the 2" ?**
A: The 8" Orion Intelliscope comes with a 2" crayford style focuser. It has a 1.25 adapter. Have fun-good scope.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Bright and sharp
*by R***H on April 2, 2023*

I'm using this primarily with an 8-inch Newtonian. It has a nice field of view without having to spend a huge amount of money. I get clear, sharp views throughout the field of view--it almost seems like I am floating in space. I'm using it primarily for viewing DSOs, but it is excellent for initially viewing planets before switching to a shorter focal length eyepiece. I'm now considering a 40 mm as well.
