- I compare 3 common Planetary Eyepiece the TMB 2.5MM, TMB 3.2mm eyepiece and the Starguider ED 3.2MM but which is best? come and see for yourself.

If you dont want it so bright on camera, just get a pro app I recommend pro cam x for android and turn down the shutter speed and you'll get real good images
great comparison. could you please do this comparison on the moon please and show what kind of details you can pick up. thankyou
You read my mind😉 I'm definitely going to do this for part two! Stay tuned and thanks for the import.
im new to this aswell. i have the skywatcher st120mm which i got about 2 months ago. i was thinking of getting the tmb eyepieces. but not too sure on which ones to get.
@@rashidmahmood24 I think for the money you can't go wrong I'm definitely impressed with their 2.5mm and the guy from the youtube channel Hertfordshire allotments compares them to the more expensive eyepieces which he believes they come close too. Have a look at the SVBONY range also they have a set which costs about £20 there the ones with a gold band around the eyepiece 👍
The image was over exposed making the resolution very hard to determine
Bear to mind the video was never intended to show of the camera but more so the difference in eyepiece as the observer would perceive looking through the eyepiece. This is why all setting were left as is. Otherwise every eyepiece could of been made to output whatever result one would desire. 🙂
@@MansHobbsInterests All you needed to do was reduce the ISO to a lower level and keep it the same for all three
Would a filter have helped the brightness?
Yes, definitely would off but I was trying to show the true likeliness you would get with the naked eye.
Cheers nice vid
Awesome presentation and comparison of these eyepieces. Just out of curiosity, what telescope were they used with?
Thanks for the compliment.
It was filmed through a 10" newtonian telescope with a smartphone over the eyepieces.
@@MansHobbsInterests Thanks.
The 3.2 starguider has av ot of light scatter but its sharp in most scopes under 1000mm the 5mm and 12mm dual eds are gems the tmbs are all good exc 3.2mm ..compared them to my delites very little in it except the tmb 8 had greater contrast in my c925....the 5 element Konig with barlow (smyth element) in the TMBs are worth every penny ..
PS: use a filter toooo bright or do moon with a filter that would be a good comparo..or how obvious is jupiters red spot etc..good work though mate
Thank you for the information, it's much appreciated 🙏
2 lens design? No, those have many more than 2 lenses in them
You know for somebody that's supposed to be into astro photographyou seem to be like a newbie not to be disrespectful. Why didn't you try to pick something with more definition like Saturn using filters that will enable somebody to see the contrast in the sharpness. If you're going to show points of light why don't you put a double star even though they're planetary I pieces for definition in sharpness.
Your right I am a newbie but with regards to Saturn, I live in the middle of london surrounded by buildings and a high fence and it wouldn't be feasible to travel to do this in time I have. Sorry you didn't like the video.
Good comparison would like to see with a nice filter to time the images down a bit and see what detail we can see oh shout out to Herts channel too he has some great videos too subscribed and awaiting some more TMB images through the lens 😊😊👍👍👍
Agreed. I have some filters on order and will compare in a future video. Possibly use the moon instead when and look at the craters.🙂👍🙏
@@MansHobbsInterests I can recommend the svbony moon and sky glow that’s very good as is the adjustable polarising filter both make a massive diffenrce to contrast on planetary targets 👍👍
@@moonmonkey9595 I agree svbony moon uhc light pollution filters are all great , also 26 mm and 23 mm svbony eyepieces are superb for little money
Hi Paul which ones are the 26mm and 23mm? I've managed to find a 23 and 26mm and they come in 2" are they the ones your referring too?
@@paulrobert7880 I have the 4/10/20mm svbony aspheric eyepieces and there pretty damn good eyepieces too the gold band ones lots of people hate the 4mm one perhaps I just got lucky because it’s far superior to all my other 4mm EP’s 😊
I just received a 3.2mm TMB but I am pretty sure it is a 2.5mm. I was expecting a 203x magnification in my telescope but I am getting much more than my 217x set. Is that normal?
Hmm, not sure to be honest. If you're getting high magnification, though, it's a good thing.
What was the scope you used?
It's a 10" F6 newtonian
