SVBONY SV154 Telescope Eyepiece 2 inch Super Wide Angle Eyepiece 70 Degree 26mm Telescope Accessory SWA Eyepiece for Astronomy Observation (2 in)

When you read online astronomy forums, people make it seems like you have to spend $$$ on a televue or a baader to be able to see anything out of your telescope. They bash svbiny a lot as cheap garbage. I can confidently say, this is a great lens, and as a normal amateur astronomer with normal eyes living in a bortle 5-7 area, everything looks crisp, clean, and beautiful through this lens. I love the immersive wide field of view. This a fine lens! Dont let the snobs convince you to spend 3 times the price on a lens that is supposed to be better but offer barely any noticeable difference for the extra cost!

It’s not a Tele Vue but for the price you can’t go wrong.

I purchase the 15mm 70 degree eyepiece, well made,great field of view, sharp clear imagesWith a budget price.

Eye piece has excellent field of view and good eye relief

For the price this is an awesome eyepiece. Great exit pupil and FOV. Svbony products are well made and affordable. This is my first 2" eyepiece purchase and could not be happier with it.

Another great SVBONY lens (eyepiece). After I first opened the box I was not impressed. It was small and hardly had any substantial weight. Sadly I thought I might be writing my first SVBONY negative review. NEVER write a review until you use, try said product. Doing that is not fair to the public who are reading your reviews. Several days later I used my new SWA 70 15 mm eyepiece in my 8 inch Mead and could not believe the nice crisp view. No mater where my eye was at when looking through the lens, the view was sharp and clear. I compared it to my other standard 15mm SVBONY eyepiece and the difference was clear (no pun intended) this newest SWA 70 15 mm eyepiece was the superior eyepiece.This is a call out to SVBONY. Please consider designing and making a high end wide angle eyepiece, 30-32 mm 1.25 inch range. This wide angle lens is perfect for viewing large open clusters and large nebula such as the, Orion nebula.Highly recommended.

I skeptically purchased the SVBONY 154 26mm expecting many flaws for such a bargain price. I've owned the legendary 24mm Panoptic eyepiece for 15+ years. (The 24mm is so good, it's used price is steadily increasing, not declining, over time.) But the SVBONY 154 was great in my 8" f/10 SCT. I was stunned how sharp it was. As far as I could tell, the promised 70-degree AFOV was correct. I can imagine doing an entire astronomy outreach program just using the 154.Some comparisons and limits: The Pan weighs 8 oz vs the 154's 11oz. The 154 is a 2" eyepiece so any filters would be 2" also ($$). Of course, the telescope would need a 2" focuser. I can report that the 154 works fine in the popular photography adapter, NexYZ.I'm a little concerned about the eye-cap. It should be fine if you don't switch it between eye-mode to glasses-mode. But it's more stiff than most eye-caps and so it might not tolerate frequent adjustments. A good eye-cap is essential when viewing from an illuminated location.There are many high-quality 24mm-26mm eyepieces on the market. But the SVBONY delivers an amazing view for a novice-friendly price.

I bought this eyepiece for my 8 in Dobsonian, I needed a wider FOV. I weighs a good amount and is fully multi coated.It fits nicely in an average 2 in focuser. I used it to view the Pleiades and M42(The Orion Nebula) and all the stars are in the wider FOV.
