Review of the Baader Morpheus Eyepieces

[michael.h.f.wilkinson]

Interesting report. Good to see the EPs perform at F/5. It looks like the 6.5mm has a flatter field than the 12.5 as reported elsewhere

Hi Ruud,

Thanks for the useful info. Sounds good to me. I wanted to upgrade my 6.5mm Meade HD-60, so I'm considering the 6.5mm Morpheus as a most appropriate candidate. The HD-60 works excellent in my f/6 Dob, no complaints except that the 60* views look a little bit claustrophobic after looking through 82*AFOV eyepieces. I can get a used 7mm Nagler T6, but prefer slightly darker background and higher contrast provided by shorter FL eyepieces.  As for the 12.5mm Morpheus I can skip it and get the 11mm ES82 instead.

Clear skies.

I read your great review which prompted me to jump on a 9mm Morpheus in my local classifieds, i look forward to giving it a go in my Starmaster under dark skies.

Thanks for that first class review!
