Hyperion owners have continually asked
us for longer focal length eyepieces that could deliver equivalent
performance and value. Baader Planetarium has finally
responded with their new SCOPOS 30mm and 35mm 2" eyepieces.
Based on the similar (and now discontinued) eyepiece design available
from a previous supplier, the Baader SCOPOS incorporate upgraded
multi-coatings, blackened lens edges, and offer the same wide fields and
long comfortable eye relief as their Hyperion cousins.
The SCOPOS Extremes deliver
performance that rivals much more expensive eyepieces. Their
70 degree apparent field, low astigmatism, huge eye lenses, and comfortable exit
pupil make these a real joy to use, and elicit that famous 'space walk'
feeling - without an accompanying zero gravity wallet feeling.
Soft silicone rubber eyecups fold down
for eyeglass users, and the rubber grip ring and safety barrel undercut
provides an extra measure of safety. Each SCOPOS eyepiece is
supplied in a leatherette pouch and includes two protective end caps.
As reviewed on Cloudy Nights:

Scopos is the un-named eyepiece in the shootout, though its coatings
have been improved since the review)
Please note: these are
impressively large eyepieces (particularly the 35mm).
Please check the listed weights below to make sure they will work in
your system.
