Introduction:

In this blog post, we will address some common questions and provide answers regarding the SV230 zoom eyepiece. We understand that customers may have specific concerns or queries, and we aim to provide thorough explanations to help clarify any uncertainties about this product.

Q: Why aren't the 1.25 and 2 inches barrels blackened? I have had eyepieces where I had to change the barrel because of the reflective surfaces introducing extra glare and reflections that reduce contrast.

A: Thank you for your feedback. Here is the response:

1. Our eyepiece design takes into consideration the issue of stray light. We have applied anti-reflection coatings to all the edges of our optical glass and employed a blackening treatment on all internal metal parts.

2. Regarding your concern about the non-blackening issue with the 1.25-inch & 2-inch adapters, let us explain further. The effective clear aperture of this eyepiece is approximately 23mm, so the 1.25-inch to 2-inch adapter primarily serves as a conversion tool. The 1.25-inch barrel, which connects and accommodates filter threads, does not have the blackening treatment, but it also does not cause unnecessary reflections.

3. Both the 1.25-inch and 2-inch adapters are made of stainless steel.

4. This adapter design has been tested and verified on our SV215 Planetary Zoom Eyepiece and APM 7.7-15.4mm eyepieces, and it does not cause unnecessary stray light issues.
