INDEX
The Series 5000 Premium Eyepieces represent
the highest level of eyepiece technology. Featuring
advanced lens designs with 5, 6 and 7 elements,
super fully multi-coated lenses and some of the
widest elds of view available, they provide the user
with the highest-contrast, pinpoint-sharp images and
spectacular wide eld views of the heavens. They
are made to the same high quality standards as the
primary optics in your LS 6" telescope and allow you
to get all the performance that the Advanced Coma-
Free and Schmidt-Cassegrain optical systems were
designed to deliver. Use a Series 5000 Telextender for
2, 3 or 5 times the magni cation of the eyepiece alone.
There is even a 2x 2 inch Telextender for the large 2
inch eyepieces.
NOTE: 2 inch eyepieces require the optional Series
5000 2” Enhanced Diagonal with 99% Re ectivity
(product number 07677) and the SC Thread to 2"
Accessory Adapter (product number 07085).
