EXPLORE SCIENTIFIC 62° LER Eyepiece 14mm Ar

Testbericht zu den 62° LER Okularen

Von Thorsten Zeiger, Volkssternwarte Niederrhein

Bei einem sehr guten Seeing konnten wir, die Volkssternwarte Niederrhein, endlich unsere neuen Okulare der 62° Serie von Explore Scientific ausprobieren. Dies habe ich mal gleich zum Anlass genommen, über die Erfahrungen und Tests zu berichten.

Ich fange mal mit der Verpackung an. Die Okulare liegen gut geschützt, quasi "wohl gebettet" in einem Karton mit jeweils passender Schaumstoffauskleidung. Sehr gut geeignet, wenn man öfters und schnell mal bei der Beobachtung zwischen verschiedenen Okularen wechselt. Wir haben uns direkt für alle sieben erhältlichen Größen entschieden.

Beim Auspacken fiel schon vorher die sehr gute Verarbeitung der Okulare auf. Die Steckhülsen, bei den 40mm und 32mm in 2", bei den anderen Größen in 1 1/4" Ausführung, laufen am oberen Ende konisch zu, sodass ein Herausfallen bei gelöster Klemmschraube verhindert wird. Wir benutzen ein 14" Schmidt-Cassegrain GPS auf Säule und Polhöhenwiege. Dazu ein Zenitprisma, und gerade hier ist es wichtig, ein Herausfallen des Okulars zu verhindern. 

Nun aber zu Wesentlichen:

Optische Eigenschaften

Die optischen Eigenschaften sind erstaunlich. Die Schärfe und Farbtreue bis an den Bildrand (wichtig bei bildausfüllenden Beobachtungen wie Mond oder Sternhaufen) beeindrucken.

Einblickverhalten

Das Einblickverhalten ist auch für Brillenträger tadellos, da man sehr gut beim Abstand zur Linse variieren kann, ohne "etwas zu verpassen". Alle Okulare sind mit ausklappbaren Augenmuscheln bestückt. 

Preis-Leistung

Da wir im Besitz einiger Okulare aus den verschiedenen Preissegmenten unterschiedlicher Hersteller sind, können wir die Qualitäten sehr gut beurteilen und vergleichen.

Fazit

Ich kann sagen, dass dem Hersteller hier ein großer Wurf gelungen ist, sowohl optisch wie auch verarbeitungsmäßig qualitativ hochwertige Okulare auf den Markt gebracht zu haben.

EXPLORE SCIENTIFIC U-Mount with tripod for giant binoculars
Massive fork mount with excellent and adjustable mechanics for large binoculars with tripodWhen using giant binoculars, a stable mount and tripod with an appropriate load capacity is absolutely necessary. The new EXPLORE SCIENTIFIC U-mount with field tripod has been specially designed for the EXPLORE SCIENTIFIC BT series of giant binoculars, but also fits most other binoculars from 70 to 120mm lens diameter, which have a 1/4 inch photo thread connection on the underside. With the U-mount there is no shaking or annoying vibrations, the combination is as solid as a piece of iron and provides unlimited observation pleasure in all binocular adjustment positions. Whether you are observing the starry sky or the landscape, the U-mount is a solid base for your giant binocular and allows soft and smooth movements in both axes.The U-mount as a base for giant binoculars and always with you on every excursionAn easily transportable but solid mount is essential when using giant binoculars. A simple photo tripod with ball head or video tilt head is quickly overloaded here. The new EXPLORE SCIENTIFIC U-mount has an excellent mechanism with adjustable friction in both axes, and allows easy adjustment and tracking even when the load is fully utilised. Depending on the adjusted intensity of the friction, the binocular position is kept stable or a soft and smooth movement can be achieved. The large adjustment screws on both axes are smooth and easy to operate even with gloves and clammy fingers. Vibrations are reduced to an absolute minimum by the solid construction of the U-mount. Even at high magnification, there are no shakes and the finest details can be observed. The U-mount and tripod can be separated for easy transport.Mounting the large binoculars on the U-mountThe binoculars can be mounted and removed in a few seconds using the quick-release adapter plate included in the scope of delivery. This is a major advantage, especially for mobile outdoor use. The connection between binoculars and adapter plate is made by two 1/4 inch threaded bolts (standard photo tripod thread), which are variably guided in a slotted hole. A universal use with different binoculars is thus possible. The double screw connection guarantees a very secure fit of the binoculars. The adapter plate itself is also attached to the U-mount with the help of two large clamping screws, which are easy to use even when wearing gloves. Nothing wobbles here and all controls are easy to use.The field tripod provides a secure standNo matter what the surface, the EXPLORE SCIENTIFIC field tripod provides a safe stand. The solid aluminium and stainless steel construction effectively suppresses any kind of vibration. The large 50mm diameter stainless steel tripod legs and the aluminium tripod head plate are an ideal combination and offer maximum stability with a moderate transport weight of only 5.8kg. With applied and retracted tripod legs, the transport dimension is only 80cm long. The included accessory tray additionally gives some tension outwards to the tripod legs and thus to increase the stability. By pulling out the tripod legs, the working height for the binoculars can be individually adjusted within a range of approx. 100 to 140cm.
