    Construction


    William Optics 90° Erect Prism - 1.25

    Built with durable materials to ensure long-lasting performance and reliability. The precision-machined housing provides secure connections and maintains proper alignment of the optical elements.

    Compatibility:


    Designed for use with 1.25" eyepieces and telescopes with 1.25" focusers. The prism features standard 1.25" fittings on both the eyepiece and telescope sides, ensuring wide compatibility with most refractors, reflectors, and catadioptric telescopes.

    Comfort and Ergonomics


    The 90-degree design provides a comfortable viewing position, especially for observations near the zenith. This ergonomic design reduces neck strain during extended observing sessions, making it ideal for both casual stargazing and prolonged study of celestial objects.

    Image Orientation


    Unlike standard star diagonals, this erecting prism provides a fully corrected image orientation - right-side-up and correctly oriented left-to-right. This feature is particularly valuable for terrestrial observations and for easily locating and tracking celestial objects.

    Versatility


    Suitable for a wide range of observations, from daytime terrestrial viewing to nighttime astronomical observations. The correct image orientation makes it especially useful for nature watching, spotting scopes, and for easily following star charts during astronomical sessions.

    Optical Coatings


    Features high-quality anti-reflection coatings to maximize light transmission and reduce unwanted reflections. These coatings help maintain image brightness and contrast, crucial for observing faint celestial objects.

    Ease of Use


    Designed for quick and easy installation and removal. The smooth, precise fit ensures that changing between direct viewing and prism use is hassle-free, allowing for flexibility during observing sessions.
