The 6 mm model is designed for high magnification, ideal for observing planets, the Moon, binary stars and other bright objects where fine detail resolution is desired.
The Celestron OMNI eyepiece series is popular for its quality workmanship, solid optics and great price/performance ratio. The 6mm model is designed for high magnification, ideal for observing planets, the moon, binary stars and other bright objects where fine detail resolution is desired.
Key Features:
Focal length: 6 mm - provides high magnification while maintaining good luminosity.
Field of view: approx. 52° - wide and natural image without tunnel effect.
1.25″clamping diameter - standard size compatible with most binoculars.
Multi-element achromatic design - ensures sharp, high contrast and colour-fidelity images.
Multiple anti-reflective layers (fully coated) - for improved light transmission and minimized glare.
Aluminum body with blackened threads - reduces internal reflections and ensures durability.
Comfortable eye relief - also suitable for extended viewing without fatigue.
Recommendations for use:
The 6 mm eyepiece is ideal for:
Detailed observation of the Moon and planets - e.g. craters, polar caps of Mars, belts of Jupiter, rings of Saturn.
Observation of tight binaries - where maximum resolution is required.
Medium to larger telescopes (e.g. 130/900, 150/1200, 200/1000, Celestron C6/C8) - to use high magnification.
Notes: This is a very popular eyepiece among beginners and advanced users - it provides high magnification but isIt is not as extreme as the 4mm and therefore easier to use even in poor atmospheric conditions.
Comparison with other eyepieces:
4mm - higher magnification but more demanding on seeing and focus accuracy.
9mm / 10mm - slightly lower magnification, more suitable for less quiet conditions.
15 mm or more - lower magnification, ideal for deep-sky and clear viewing.
