Celestron 1.25" Observers Accessory Kit

Celestron put together this 1.25" Observers Accessory Kit to give users the essentials for observation and astro-imaging. This kit includes two Plossl eyepieces that yield high and low magnifications on any given telescope, two planetary color filters, and a neutral density Moon filter. This kit also includes a multi-function accessory that combines a 2x Barlow lens with a T-adapter which will not only double the magnification of any eyepiece used in it, but also allows a camera-specific T-ring to easily thread onto it to for astrophotography with a DSLR. An included plastic carrying case holds all of the kit's optical accessories with room for more.

Eyepieces

1.25" barrel diameter

Four-element lens design

52° apparent angle of view

Anti-reflection fully multi-coated optics improve light transmission, color rendition, and contrast

17mm focal length produces a medium magnification view in most telescopes

6mm focal length produces high magnifications - ideal for the Moon and planets

Eyepiece Filters

#80A Medium-Blue:

Enhances the contrast of the cloud belts on Jupiter and the polar ice caps on Saturn

Increases contrast on the Moon

#25 Deep Red:

Helps to define the polar ice caps on Mars

Useful when observing Jupiter

ND Moon:

Helps block out a portion of the Moon's light to increase contrast, allowing users to see details better

Use when observing Venus to reduce glare so that the planet's phases can more easily be seen

Combo Accessory

2x Barlow: Doubles the magnification of any 1.25" eyepiece

T-threads allow a camera to be mounted when used with an optional T-ring
