Eyepieces
Eyepieces are one of the most important telescope accessories. They are responsible for magnifying the image that is being observed. A good quality eyepiece will produce a clear and sharp image. There are many different types of eyepieces available on the market, but Plossl eyepieces are considered to be some of the best. The Celestron Plossl Eyepieces come with a four-element design and have a 52-degree AFOV (32 mm has 44 degrees). The Celestron Plossl Eyepieces have a superb color resolution, edge sharpness, and clarity. All of the eyepieces in the Celestron Eyepiece and Filter Kit are fully multicoated for maximum contrast and resolution. Supplied eyepieces are the 6mm, 8mm, 13mm, 17mm, and 32 mm focal length Plossl type. All five Plossl eyepieces can be used in any telescope with a 1.25” focuser.
Celestron Barlow Lens
The Celestron Barlow Lens is a great addition to any telescope accessory kit. It has high-grade glass optics and is fully multicoated to ensure there is no degradation of image quality. This 2X Barlow lens increases the magnification twice that of any 1.25″ eyepiece used. Since this kit includes five (5) eyepieces, so we have a total of ten magnification options in all. Moreover this Barlow lens also works with any other 1.25” eyepieces that you already have. Remember, high magnifications do not always produce clear, sharp results, especially on evenings of poor or moderate seeing conditions.
Celestron colored eyepiece Filters Lens
Celestron’s colored eyepiece filters are perfect for lunar and planetary observing. They enhance the contrast of different features on the planets and moon, making them easier to see. The included Kodak Wratten #12, #21, #25, #56, #58, and #80A filters will help you get the most out of your Celestron telescope. The Moon filter is also great for reducing glare and bringing out more detail on the lunar surface. If you’re looking for a complete kit to get started in planetary and lunar observing, this is it!
Filters – Colored filters can be used to bring out certain details on a planet’s surface or its cloud structure. All of the planetary filters included in the 1.25” Eyepiece & Accessory Kit, as well as the Moon filter can be used on any 1.25” eyepiece with the proper filter threads, so they are very versatile.
