- Coma-Correcting Optics: Built-in correction delivers sharp, pinpoint stars all the way to the edge of its ultra-wide 86° field, especially in Newtonian telescopes.
- Ultra-Wide 86° Apparent Field: Provides an immersive, space-walk viewing experience with expansive views ideal for deep-sky observing.
- Glow-in-the-Dark Focal Length Marking: The illuminated marking makes it easy to identify the eyepiece at night without ruining your dark adaptation.
- Broad Telescope Compatibility: Works best with Newtonians and slower f/6+ telescopes, while avoiding fast refractors and coma-free designs where correction isn’t needed
Houdini 9 mm 86° Coma-Correcting 1.25-inch Eyepiece
Discover the Houdini 9 mm 86° Coma-Correcting Eyepiece! A high-performance, premium eyepiece designed to deliver ultra-wide, sharp, high-contrast views with minimal aberrations. Built to tame coma and deliver a flat, distortion-free 86° field of view, it brings outstanding optical quality to Newtonian and long-focal-ratio telescopes, making deep-sky observations sharper and more immersive than ever before.
Highlights
- Well-corrected ultra-wide 86° field with sharp star images across the field
- Fast f/3 Newtonian optics compatible
- Comfortable 19 mm eye relief with foldable rubber eye cup
- Multi-coated optics and high transmission glass
- Blackened edges for minimized stray light
- Flat field requiring less than 0.5 diopters of accommodation across the field
- Low distortion delivering constant magnification
- Comfortable rubber grips
- Filter-threaded 1.25 in barrel
- Safety kerfs that do not lock, slip, or tilt
- Eyepiece cap with glow in the dark focal length markings
Will it work in my telescope?
The Houdini eyepieces were designed for Newtonian telescopes with parabolic mirrors, but they will also work well with any telescope with a focal ratio of f/6 or slower (f/8, f/10, etc.). This includes slow refractors and most popular Schmidt-Cassegrain telescopes. The eyepiece is not recommended for use with fast telescope systems without parabolic mirror, such as f/5 APO refractors.
