A premium Baader Maxbright Terrestrial Binoviewer with daytime 45 degree erector and 2x corrector will enhance viewing comfort whilst retaining the best possible optical quality. Observing with a single eye lets you only use a small fraction of your brains processing power. The brain uses an elaborate backup system, so that image information gained from monocular viewing can be routed into both hemispheres of the brain. The downside is the huge reduction in image processing power! Just as with a CCD image, the monocular signal gets degraded by all sorts of imaging defects. The brain rather works like a webcam.
Maxbright-Bino with ereceting 45° Roof Prism and integrated 2x Glasspath-Corrector. This combo comes to focus with every Refractor or SC-Telescope and enables relaxed terrestrial viewing, comfortable viewing position and correctly oriented erect images
Many superimposed images form what your brain will eventually get to see and if all these images stem from just one channel, the result is rather a meager one. With two images to be merged from two different channels, the brain only takes milliseconds to sort out all retina defects, to compensate for slight astigmatism and to eliminate hot pixels resulting from nerve noise in the energy transport.
No wonder people immediately praise the relaxed feeling of dual eye observation! Observing with a single eye quickly stresses your ability for concentrated viewing to the point where you just have to retreat from the eyepiece in order to release the tension on your brain. Any such problems are completely absent during binocular observation. Watch for hours without fatigue, even a largely reduced resolving power on one eye will contribute markedly to improved perception. Enjoy virtual magnification and intensified colours, supplied complete with an aluminium case.
Features:
Our own new metal-diecastings, featuring precision prism seats made to the same extremely tight tolerance as our Baader/Zeiss Mark V Giant BinocularViewer.
Removable 1.25" eyepiece holders with diopter adjustment and LATERAL ADJUSTMENT provision. None of the low price binoculars has this feature even though it is most important.
Lateral adjustment of the eyepiece holders is the optical essential to beeing able at all to precisely collimate the viewer for high magnification work.
All air to glass surfaces 7-layer AR-multicoated to the highest quality grade achieveable today.
23 mm diameter clear front aperture. Capable to fully illuminate even large 25 mm fl widefield eyepieces.
45 degree erector for comfortable corrected daytime viewing with standard 1.25" adaptor.
2x glasspath corrector controls lateral colour and helps focus travel for more telescope compatibility.
Please note binoviewers are not suitable for reflectors but will suit SCT, Maksutovs and most refractors.
