About this product

Model: bst_sg_5
Part Number: SP10851

Please note BST StarGuider ED eyepieces are occasionally branded 'Astro Essentials'.

Remarkably high performance-per-£!

Features include two ED glass elements and fully multicoated edge-blackened optics for excellent colour, enhanced contrast, high light transmission and minimal ghosting.

The six-element / four-group design minimises field curvature for a nice flat field, even when used with telescope f-ratios as low as f5.

Modern twist-up eyecups, 16mm eye relief and 21mm diameter eye-lens makes them comfortable to use, even when wearing eyeglasses.

The tactile rubber grip and milled indentations make them easy to handle in the dark and the 1.25“ nosepiece includes a safety undercut so the eyepiece is less likely to slip out of the focuser. The 1.25” nosepiece is also threaded to accept 1.25“ astronomy filters.

BST Starguider 5mm

Excellent value for money. Well made and look and feel as though would cost more. Optically they are good. Overall I’m more than happy with this eyepiece and will be adding more to the kit.
Good service from FLO.

The best value for such money (as with all BST StarGuiders)

Great optical performance, great FOV, great eye-relief and all that at great price!

Keep in mind that this is short-focal eyepiece. These eyepieces are more demanding - they're more sensible to the flaws of your scope (optical quality of your scope, collimation condition and so on) and (providing more magnification) more sensible to the sky conditions.

Good eyepiece and great service! x 110 magnification on my APM SA100 Bino with these 5mm , a brief testing on the moon was pleasant , but soon the clouds took over the skies
