Houdini: New eyepieces with coma correction
May 15 2025, Stefan Taube
Every passionate astronomer who observes with a large Dobsonian telescope is familiar with the problem of coma aberration. This optical aberration is typical of Newtonian telescopes and makes the stars at the edges of the field of view appear comet-like. A coma corrector solves this problem.
The Houdini coma corrector eyepieces are a real alternative! With these eyepieces there is no need to buy an expensive coma corrector!
At the moment, only the Houdini eyepiece with a focal length of 20 millimeters is available, but in the course of the year the manufacturer will offer further focal lengths, all of which you will find here in the store!
