Omegon Angled Eyepiece for 90° Polar Finder-Scope

The Omegon 90° Angled View Polar Finder Attachment: A Game-Changer for Effortless Polar Alignment

Aligning your telescope mount to the celestial North Pole can be an irritating and uncomfortable task, often requiring you to crouch on the ground and peer through a polar finder at a steep downward angle. This awkward position can lead to back pain and fatigue, detracting from the overall observing experience. However, the Omegon 90° Angled View Polar Finder Attachment offers a simple and effective solution to this common problem.

The key advantage of this attachment is that it allows you to view the polar finder at a 90-degree angle, eliminating the need to kneel on the ground. This ergonomic design ensures a comfortable observing posture, enabling you to spend more time fine-tuning the polar alignment and achieving a more precise north alignment of your mount.

The angled finder features an Amici prism and coated optical surfaces, providing a clear and sharp view of the Pole Star and the reticule. The adjustable focus and 1X and 2X zoom factors allow you to easily obtain a detailed and well-focused image, further enhancing the accuracy of the polar alignment process.

The attachment is also highly versatile, as it can be rotated 360 degrees. This means that even if you need to view the polar finder from slightly to the right or left of the mount, the angled finder can be adjusted to suit your needs, ensuring a comfortable and unobstructed view.

As a general rule, when observing in a comfortable posture, you are better able to focus on the task at hand and gather more information about the celestial objects you are studying. The same principle applies to the polar alignment process – the Omegon 90° Angled View Polar Finder Attachment allows you to spend more time adjusting the alignment and achieve a more accurate north alignment, leading to better overall observing results.

In summary, the Omegon 90° Angled View Polar Finder Attachment is a game-changer for amateur astronomers who want to make the polar alignment process more comfortable and efficient. By eliminating the need to crouch on the ground and providing a clear, adjustable view of the polar finder, this attachment can significantly enhance your observing experience and help you obtain more precise polar alignments, ultimately leading to better-quality observations.
