standard accessory unless you purchased a package.
VISUAL CONFIGURATION
Magnification of
the Telescope
When using an
eyepiece with
short focal length
(small number in
millimeters), the
image will be dim
and the range of
sharp focus will
be small. The
image will be
harder to see so
begin with an
eyepiece with
long focal length.
Dividing the focal
length of the
telescope by the
focal length of
the eyepiece
gives the
magnification.
Example: Calculating the eyepiece magnification of a telescope with 1035mm focal length.
