The 3.5mm Orion Stratus Wide-Field Eyepiece is a high powered eyepiece that is great for viewing details of the planets and moon. With its wide field of view and fully multi-coated optics you get large, bright, high-contrast images.

This was a great addition to my eyepiece line-up since I didn't have anything that approached this magnification. I'm using it with my Orion SkyQuest XT8 Classic Dobsonian Telescope which bring my magnification to 342x. This eyepiece offers a great design that magnifies the usual extremely small aperture of a high-powered eyepiece, which make using it much easier than cheaper eyepieces. Be warned though, this eyepiece will only produce decent images in ideal viewing conditions due to optical limitations.
Favorite viewing location: My own backyard.
Favorite object to observe: Jupiter
Yes, I recommend this product!
