NexStar™ Plössl Eyepieces: 1¼" |
 |
In a recent Sky &
Telescope review, Celestron's Plössl eyepieces were rated as top ranking, and found
to outperform many similar, but more expensive eyepieces. An exceptional value!
Performance rivals the LV eyepieces. Celestron offers these premium eyepieces at affordable prices, yet they're among the best designed and corrected eyepieces available. They're multicoated (not just fully coated) for enhanced contrast and all are threaded to accept Celestron colored eyepiece filters. Note these Plössl eyepieces have been improved even further - rubber grips for easier handling, soft rubber eyecups for more comfortable viewing by blocking out auxiliary light and providing increased contrast. |
|
| Axiom™ Eyepieces: 1¼" and 2" |

|
| Economy Eyepieces: .96" and 1¼" |
| Celestron offers these very
economical eyepieces to expand your viewing options. They are all simple eyepiece designs — Ramsden (SR & F) and Huygens (H & HM) but perform quite well on f/8 or slower telescopes. The optics are all glass and they’re priced to make a complete range of powers easily available. |
|
| Super Modified Achromatic (SMA) Eyepieces .96" and 1¼" |

The eyepieces are fully coated for maximum contrast. Celestron offers a range of SMA eyepieces in both .96" and 1¼" sizes. |

| Ultima® Eyepieces: 1¼" |
 |
These are Celestron’s top of the line eyepieces, utilizing a hybrid design of five elements. They feature long eye relief and a wide field, and each air-to-glass surface is fully multicoated to enhance contrast levels. These special eyepieces are computer designed to keep visual aberrations to an absolute minimum. They virtually eliminate the following aberrations: spherical, color, field curvature, coma, astigmatism, distortion and spherical distortion of the exit pupil. The inside surfaces and edges of all lenses are blackened, to keep out reflected light. Outside surfaces are flat black, with rubber grips for secure handling. Rubber eyecups are included both for comfortable use and to keep out extraneous light. Threaded barrels accept Celestron thread-in filters. Lens and barrel caps are included for safe storage. |

If
you are looking for an eyepiece that excels for planetary
viewing, then Celestron’s X-Cel offers the unique features
you are looking for. A 6-element fully multi-coated
optical design, the X-Cel utilizes extra low dispersion (ED)
glass on its most highly curved surfaces, to minimize
chromatic aberration that can hinder sharp planetary views.
With a wide 55° apparent field of view, and a large 25mm
clear aperture the X-Cel is one of the most comfortable
eyepieces to use. Every X-Cel eyepiece is parfocal with each
other, meaning little or no focusing is needed when changing
from low to high power. The X-Cel comes with soft rubber
eyecups and a durable plastic case. In addition, if you are
an eyeglass wearer, you will enjoy the 20mm eye relief
available on each of the X-Cel focal lengths. Threaded
barrels accept 1-1/4" Celestron thread-in filters.
