Baader 2" Hyperion Aspherical 36mm Eyepiece

The Baader Hyperion Aspherical 36mm Eyepiece is designed for astronomers who want expansive, immersive views with outstanding optical efficiency. Built for wide-field deep-sky observing, this eyepiece is especially well suited to viewing large nebulae, open star clusters, and sweeping Milky Way fields.

Ultra-Wide Panoramic Field of View

Delivering an impressive 72-degree apparent field of view, the Hyperion Aspherical 36mm provides a true panoramic observing experience. Large celestial objects appear spacious and well framed, making this eyepiece an excellent choice for low-power scanning and visual exploration of the night sky.

Advanced Aspherical Optical Design

This eyepiece features precision-engineered aspherical optical surfaces, a pioneering design that reduces edge distortion and aberrations without increasing lens complexity. By using aspheric optics, Baader achieves high image quality while keeping the eyepiece relatively lightweight and optically efficient.

High Contrast with Phantom Group Coatings

Baader’s Phantom Group multi-coating enhances light transmission and contrast while suppressing internal reflections. This results in darker sky backgrounds, sharper star images, and improved visibility of faint details, particularly beneficial when observing extended deep-sky targets.

Optimised for 2" Focusers & Imaging Compatibility

The fixed 36mm focal length is ideal for achieving wide true fields of view in 2-inch focuser systems, especially in fast Newtonians and refractors. The eyepiece also supports DSLR projection astrophotography via the SP54 system thread, allowing seamless integration into imaging setups.

Modular Hyperion System Flexibility

As part of the Hyperion ecosystem, the eyepiece features a modular construction that allows focal length adjustment and accessory integration through optional Baader components. This flexibility enables observers to tailor the eyepiece to their telescope and observing preferences.

The Baader 2" Hyperion Aspherical 36mm Eyepiece is an excellent choice for astronomers seeking a premium wide-angle eyepiece that combines innovative optics, immersive views, and long-term versatility for both visual observing and astrophotography.
