Tele Vue Ethos Overview

With its exceptional apparent angle of view, the Tele Vue Ethos 21mm Eyepiece offers a comfortable eye-relief with high contrast and excellent on-axis sharpness; and virtually zero astigmatism or field curvature across its expansive 100° field of view.

It features anti-reflection fully multi-coated optics to improve brightness, color rendition, and contrast; and a fold-down rubber eyecup that helps to block stray peripheral light from interfering with the views and to further enhance contrast. Combining a hyper-wide apparent angle of view with a long focal length, the eyepiece delivers moderate to low magnifications on most telescopes — offering expansive views of the night sky and an immersive observational experience. This eyepiece features a large 2" barrel diameter to make it even more comfortable to view through, and a textured rubberized grip for sure handling. It is compatible with the astigmatism-correcting DIOPTRX diopters to further improve the view.

Might Be The Best Tele Vue Eyepiece

By Craig
Rated 5 out of 5

This eyepiece is the most expensive in the Tele Vue lineup and arguably the finest--cases could be made for the Nagle 31mm as well as the Ethos 17mm eyepieces for the title of best. The views are wide and sharp, providing a great experience for the user. If you can afford just one premium eyepiece, this would be a great choice.

The TV Ethos 21mm 2 eyepiece is a monster! Whatever you do don't drop it on your foot. What a piece of glass. The views on my 8 SCT are great but the wide views on my Takahashi are stunning! This E.P. is a great complement to my other Ethos: 13mm, 8mm and 3.7mm. At close to a grand this puppy is not cheap but, like I said, you get what you pay for. I bought an Explore Scientific 40mm but returned it. Terrible eye relief, soft edges.. This Ethos has a 15mm eye relief and 100 degree FOV. Sharp corner to corner. Yep, I would recommend.

question

Good day,I got a Celestron NexStar Evolution 9.25 last week and from the reading it seems that it would benefit greatly from better eyepieces than the supplied stock ones.The telescope has Focal Length 2350 mm and Focal Ratio 10.I'm reading good things about the TeleVue Ethos.I was thinking about getting the Ethos 21mm. Would that be a good choice for my telescope?Also the Ethos SX 4.7mm, but maybe it would be too much power for my telescope? The supplied stock 13mm seems quite shaky as it is, using it from my apartment balcony.For the Ethos 21mm I would need 2 diagonal. Would TeleVue 2 Everbrite Diagonal - Satin be a good choice? Would it fit my telescope?Or maybe the Meade Series 5000 Dielectric Diagonal (2 ) as it seems to be supplied with Schmidt-Cassegrain to 2 adapter?Would there be a big difference between these two diagonals in the picture quality or not really on my telescope?What is the advantage of getting Ethos 21mm and Ethos 10mm versus Ethos 21mm and a 2x Barlow?Any advise/recommendations would be appreciated.Thanks.Regards,Andrej
Asked by: Andrej J.
I would personally go with the 21mm Ethos model. The 4.7mm will be overkill I think. You could still use it, but you would notice some shake for sure. I would go with the Meade 5000 Series for the Diagonal that would be a better choice. If you have any other inquiries like this please e-mail us at [email protected].
