Celestron Wide Angle Eyepiece Description

The Celestron Wide Angle Eyepiece is an exceptional accessory designed to enhance your viewing experience, whether you're observing celestial objects or enjoying terrestrial landscapes. With its fixed magnification, this eyepiece allows for a broad field of view that makes it easy to quickly locate and follow subjects as they move. Imagine the thrill of effortlessly tracking birds in flight or admiring the intricate details of the Moon's surface—this eyepiece makes it all possible.

One of the standout features of the Celestron Wide Angle Eyepiece is its proprietary XLT optical coatings. These coatings, developed specifically for Celestron’s observatory-grade telescopes, significantly enhance light transmission through the optical path, resulting in bright, razor-sharp images with outstanding contrast and detail. Whether you are viewing a distant mountain range or the rings of Saturn, the clarity will leave you in awe.

Comfort is key when it comes to long viewing sessions, and this eyepiece excels in that regard. With an impressive eye relief of 20 mm, both eyeglass wearers and non-eyeglass users can enjoy a full field of view without discomfort. The twist-up eyecup allows users without glasses to position their eye optimally for the best experience.

For photography enthusiasts, the Celestron Wide Angle Eyepiece offers the ability to capture and share stunning images. By attaching an SLR camera (using an optional T-Adapter and T-Ring), you can preserve your favorite views and share them with family and friends, making your stargazing experiences memorable and tangible.

Built for reliability, this eyepiece is fully waterproof and nitrogen purged, making it suitable for use in varying weather conditions. You can venture out with confidence, knowing that unexpected weather changes won’t compromise your viewing experience. The nitrogen filling also prevents internal fogging, ensuring clear views even when transitioning between different temperatures.


Features

  • This versatile eyepiece can be used on Celestron spotting scopes, telescopes, and other optical instruments that have a 1.25” eyepiece mount. Its larger viewing area allows users to quickly acquire and easily follow moving subjects.
  • Twist-up eyecup and 20 mm eye relief provide a full field of view and comfortable viewing with or without eyeglasses.
  • Waterproof and nitrogen purged for use in all weather conditions; the nitrogen gas prevents internal fogging.
  • Celestron’s proprietary XLT coating increases light transmission through the optical path for brighter images, better contrast, and increased resolution.
  • Removing the eyecup exposes threads that can be used to attach a DSLR to the spotting scope for photography (T-Adapter ring and T-Ring required, sold separately).
