What people like
The focal extender is generally well-regarded for enhancing magnification and bringing objects into closer view. Users appreciate its ability to increase the power of existing eyepieces, allowing them to observe finer details, specifically when viewing planets and the moon. Many find it useful for achieving higher magnification without needing to purchase additional high-power eyepieces. Some reviews touch upon the benefits of maximizing telescope capabilities.
Pros
- Good Magnification Boost: Provides a substantial increase in magnification.
- Improves Detail Viewing: Allows for enhanced observation of details on planets and the moon.
- Maximizes Telescope Capabilities: Helps to get the most out of a telescope's potential.
- Cost Effective: A cheaper alternative to buying new eyepieces.
Description
A good Focal Extender adds some real versatility to your telescope accessory line-up. First of all, it allows you to increase the magnification of any eyepiece with the same barrel size that you already own. In other words, 3 eyepieces offer 6 magnification choices with the addition of a focal extender. Secondly, most of the time, lower magnification eyepieces have better eye relief than higher power models. When using a focal extender to increase your magnification, you get to enjoy the generous eye relief of the lower power eyepiece, and that’s quite a bonus, especially for eyeglass wearers or for those with fast telescopes who can really push high magnification eyepieces. Remember, we make focal extenders in 2X, 3X and 5x models, so there is something for every style of telescope.
