Will it work in my telescope?
The Houdini eyepieces were designed for Newtonian telescopes with parabolic mirrors, but they will also work well with any telescope with a focal ratio of f/6 or slower (f/8, f/10, etc.). This includes slow refractors and most popular Schmidt-Cassegrain telescopes.
The eyepiece is not recommended for use with fast telescope systems without parabolic mirror, such as f/5 APO refractors.
