Its 82° apparent field of view is more than 50% wider than the roughly 50° field of a standard Plössl, so targets sit inside a broad, immersive view and stay in the eyepiece longer on a non-tracking telescope. The 7-element, fully multi-coated optical design is housed in a precision-machined all-metal body with a 2\" barrel, and the eyepiece ships with a protective travel case with strap.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"DAV-bg-light\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"DAV-section\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e82° Field: 1.09° of Sky at 75x in a 1200mm Telescope\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn a telescope with a 1200mm focal length, such as an 8-inch f\/6 Dobsonian, the Emerald 16mm delivers 75x. Dividing the 82° apparent field by that magnification gives a true field of about 1.09°. That is more than twice the width of the full Moon, enough to frame most globular clusters with plenty of dark sky around them.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"DAV-bg-light\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"DAV-section\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e14mm of Eye Relief in a 2\" Eyepiece\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 14mm of eye relief is comfortable for most observers.
