Antares Speers-Waler WA 7.5mm

This is my favorite eyepiece. I use a 24mm Speers-WALER as a search ep, and usually switch right to this one. It delivers sharp, contrasty views that are sharp almost to the edge of its 82º field. I have done some crude FOV testing, enough to satisfy me that the manufacturer's claims are justified. I often use it with the Antares apo 2x Barlow when observing the Moon, for a very nicely detailed view. I am pleased with the entire Antares line for quality and value for money.

The 7.5 82 degree AFOV version is an excellent eyepiece. I think it's better than an original-style 7mm nagler and is a better value than other much higher-priced premium units. It's comfortable to use and is well corrected to the edge even in fast scopes. If your fast scope has good optics and is well collimated, the views with this eyepiece will be impressive to the edge.

for the price and the field of view I get in this eyepiece ,, right on I use this alot when sweeping for faint fuzzys and planetarys with filters this gives a big field of view and for the money I took it , mine is an older version but it rocks , can't afford the over priced eye pieces nor would buy them rather put the money towards a scope and enjoy the fine views I get with this eyepiece 7.5mm
