Baader Hyperion 8mm 1.25" & 2" Eyepiece

The Baader Hyperion 8mm Eyepiece is designed for astronomers who demand precision, contrast, and comfortable high-magnification performance. With its shorter focal length, this eyepiece excels at lunar, planetary, and close-up deep-sky observation, making it an excellent choice for resolving fine surface details on the Moon, planetary cloud bands, and compact star clusters.

High Magnification with an Immersive Field of View

Offering a 68-degree apparent field of view, the Hyperion 8mm provides an immersive visual experience that keeps targets comfortably framed, even at higher magnifications. This wider field is especially beneficial when using manual or Dobsonian mounts, as objects remain in view longer without constant repositioning.

High-Contrast Optics with Phantom Group Coatings

Optically, the eyepiece features Baader’s advanced Phantom Group multi-coating system, which significantly reduces internal reflections and enhances light transmission. The result is high contrast, sharp edge-to-edge performance, and neutral colour rendering. Dark sky backgrounds and crisp planetary detail are a hallmark of the Hyperion series.

Comfortable for Extended High-Power Observing

Comfort has not been sacrificed for performance. The eyepiece offers generous eye relief and a well-designed housing that supports extended observing sessions with minimal eye strain. Eyeglass wearers will also appreciate the relaxed and forgiving viewing position.

Dual 1.25" & 2" Compatibility

The dual 1.25-inch and 2-inch barrel design allows seamless compatibility with a wide range of telescope focusers without the need for additional adapters. This modular approach makes the Baader Hyperion 8mm a flexible and future-proof addition to any eyepiece collection.

Well suited for observers seeking high-power performance without compromising comfort or image quality, the Baader Hyperion 8mm 1.25" & 2" Eyepiece is a dependable tool for extracting fine detail from the night sky.
