Pentax SMC XW-2.5 Eyepiece - Technical Details

The Pentax SMC XW-2.5 Eyepiece is a high-quality, compact eyepiece designed to deliver exceptional clarity and sharp detail for users of Pentax spotting scopes. Known for its Plossl design and lanthanum glass construction, it is ideal for those seeking precise, high-magnification views with minimal chromatic aberration.

Key Features:
  • Plossl Design:

    • The Plossl design provides a simple yet effective optical layout that ensures a sharp, clear image across the field of view with minimal distortion.
  • Low Dispersion Lanthanum Glass:

    • Made with lanthanum glass, a low dispersion material, this eyepiece helps reduce chromatic aberrations and ensures a clearer, more accurate image with better contrast.
  • 2.5mm Focal Length:

    • The 2.5mm focal length offers a high magnification for detailed observation of small objects or distant subjects. Perfect for close-up work like astronomy, insects, or microscopic details in the natural world.
  • 3.9mm Eye Relief:

    • The 3.9mm eye relief provides a comfortable viewing experience, though it’s worth noting that this may not be ideal for glasses wearers due to the relatively shorter eye relief.
  • 44° Apparent Field of View:

    • The 44° apparent field of view provides a more focused, high-magnification view while still offering a sufficiently wide field for the subject to be viewed with ease.
Product Specifications:
  • Focal Length: 2.5mm
  • Apparent Field of View: 44°
  • Eye Relief: 3.9mm
  • Dimensions: 56mm (L) x 48mm (D)

I ordered online and was told straight away that there was a backorder issue from Carly. They kept me informed about the order every step of the way. I finally received in great condition, and just wanted to say amazing customer service. 5 stars!

My first purchase with CameraClix. I was hesitant to use a seller I was not familiar with but have to say it was a positive experience. It was the best price I could find online, and the lens was despatched promptly and well packed.
