What is EyepieceReviews.com? |
Astronomy is a wonderful and exciting hobby! Any amateur astronomer will tell you that looking at Jupiter through a telescope day after day is a joyful experience. However, to better view the planet a combination of parameters must be present, weather, visibility, seeing conditions, a good telescope and most important a good telescope eyepiece.
A good eyepiece can make the difference between a good and excellent viewing experience. Good eyepieces don't have to cost an arm and a leg, depending on your viewing requirements an eyepiece can cost as low as $50. But how can you tell if an eyepiece is a good one unless you buy it and try it, this could quickly become very expensive. A good piece of advice many amateur astronomer offer is to attend star parties and share telescopes/eyepieces, another good piece of advice is to surf the web for astronomy forums and visit review websites.
Our goal is to publish detailed and in depth reviews that will guide you in your purchase of your next eyepiece. As you well know, eyepieces can be very expensive, however as you also know, the best way to judge an eyepiece is to look through it. These reviews are not meant to replace judging by looking through, rather a guide that will steer you in the right direction. How many times have you purchased a $200 or $300 eyepiece to find out that you really didn't need it or that the difference wasn't worth the price.
