What is a good selection of eyepieces to have for my telescope?
It came with a 25 mm and 10 mm eyepiece. It is an expensive telescope to start with, what I do not want to spend hundreds of dollars in the eye. This is a good package: * 25-inch http://www.telescope.com/control/celestron/celestron-accessories/celestron-1-eye-and-filter-accessories-kithttp: / / Www.telescope.com/ control/celestron/celestron-accessories/celestron-1 * 25-inch-eye-and-filter-kit-accessories
Get one or two good rather than a set of closely spaced matched the cheapest. Since they do not describe their low-cost telescope, I can not begin to advise on a particular eye for certain use. It I can say in general: a) Large field is very good for use in fields of stars. The most expensive are more global at the same power. 52-55 degrees types Plossl ($ 50-60 each) are okay. Best extra wide angles are 65, 72, 82 degrees. The price goes up fast, to the hundreds of dollars. The latter are 100 and 110 degrees and cost more than some telescopes set. Or, a more moderate eye longer focal length (32 mm or more) will give lower power consumption, but broader vision, even with the number of the bottom corner. There is a practical limit to that, however. Or he loses his focus tube diameter (1.25 is more restrictive 2 inches, but also limited), or make the exit pupil (where all the light exiting the telescope system on the edge of the lens of the eye, where students the eyes should be placed) larger than 7 mm and light waste. What limit of the eye which depends on its scope. Can not advise without any information on its scope. Read about how to calculate the exit pupil in front of the lens range and mirror vs. focal length vs diameter on the Internet. 2) show high-power fields smaller unless wide-angle design. A low cost way to get a great power without great cost is a Barlow lens. Buy the best brands more expensive, because they have better results. And eye relief (distance from the eye to leave the pupil) will remain unchanged. Regular short focus eyepieces are more difficult to use due to relief in the short and small eyes out students. Most nights, the air is to increase use disorders very high, so this area is a minor consideration. And more than 60x per inch of aperture scope is empty enlargement (larger spots blurred) in almost all high grade optics. People say you can get up to 100 times per inch, a theoretical limit of optics, but is very unusual. There are many exam sites in the selection of the eye. Cloudynights.com, Astromart, Ed Ting, and Todd Gross all wonderful comment.

Celestron NexImage Solar System Imager
List Price: |
DescriptionAmazon.com Review Celestron's NexImage combines a sensitive CCD imaging device with powerful image processing software in one affordable package. Now anyone with a telescope can take pictures that are simply amazing. An image of Jupiter taken with the Celestron NexImage Solar System Imager Amateur astronomers have been taking great pictures of the moon and planets by using modified Webcams. The favored Webcams for astro-imaging have been the hard-to-find Philips ToUCam and Vesta models because of their high-performance CCD chips. Now Celestron's Neximage puts the same CCD technology in a package that's ready to use with any telescope that accepts 1.25-inch eyepieces. The NexImage includes an anodized metal nosepiece that fits in a 1.25-inch eyepiece holder. When I installed the Windows based software, I also updated my Windows Media Player files. Then I simply plugged the NexImage into my computers' USB port, and I was ready to start taking pictures. The NexImage CCD is sensitive enough that I can take "snapshots" of the Moon or Sunspots (always use a safe Solar filter, of course!) even without a motor-driven telescope. The real power of the NexImage package, however, comes from its included Registax software which automatically aligns and stacks hundreds of individual AVI video frames into one sharp, highly detailed picture. I used my 8-inch Celestron Schmidt-Cassegrain telescope (similar to the Nexstar 8 GPS ) and my 2x Ultima Barlow lens to capture some beautiful pictures of Jupiter and Saturn. The sensitive Sony CCD chip in the NexImage easily shows color and detail on Jupiter that just doesn't show up when I use CMOS-based Webcams. The fine performance of the NexImage package is limited somewhat by its included video capture software. The AmCap software doesn't give me the precise control of exposure times I'd like; I wasn't able to photograph the moon Callisto next to Jupiter, for instance, without overexposing the planet. Celestron doesn't mention the other little drawback in its ads. You'll have so much fun that your hard drive will start filling up with pictures and AVIs! --Jeff Phillips Pros: Sensitive CCD chip Fits any telescope that takes 1.25-inch eyepieces Powerful image processing software Cons: Takes practice to get the exposure time just right Software is Windows only You'll fill up your hard drive with pictures The Celestron NexImage Solar System Imager is a complete CCD solar system imager capable of producing high quality planetary images with greater light sensitivity and color fidelity than comparable CMOS imagers. -- The NexImage, along with the NexImage software package, can bring out tremendous detail and reveal a final image that will rival those taken with astronomical CCD cameras costing thousands of dollars more. -- **View and capture live video on your computer screen -- **Software automatically filters out video frames most affected by poor atmospheric "seeing" leaving only the sharpest, clearest frames to be stacked and aligned into one high quality image -- **Easy to follow quick start instructions and tutorial with sample video file that will have you producing quality images your first night out -- ** -- Camera control software allows you to manually change the gain, contrast, exposure time, frame rate and color saturation using your PC -- With the 1.25" adapter barrel, the NexImage is compatible with most any telescope. In addition, the 1.25" adapter is threaded for standard eyepiece filters and can be removed and replaced with optional focal reducer lens, adding greater versatility. -- Features

Barska BlackBlackhawk 20-60x60 Waterproof Straight Spotting Scope w/Tripod, Soft Carry Case & Premium Hard Case
List Price: |
DescriptionThe Barska Blackhawk 60mm spotting scope is a terrific value because it offers very good optical performance in a compact and affordable package. The scope itself features waterproof design, multicoated optics, and a zoom eyepiece with magnification ranging from 20X up to 60X. The accessories include a light weight table-top tripod, a soft caring case, and a durable hard shell case that will allow the rubber armored scope to stand up to a lifetime of use. The Blackhawk 60mm spotting scope uses a multi-coated objective lens and rugged porro-prism design for bright, clear images. At 100 yards, I can clearly focus in on a target, even when I crank the magnification up to the maximum 60X. When I use the scope for wildlife spotting, the sweet spot seems to be about 30X magnification; 30X gives me an ideal combination of sharp images and a wide field of view, perfect for identifying Puffins and Pelicans along the coast. I also like the compact size and light weight of the Blackhawk 60. At only 14 inches long and weighing less than two pounds, the Blackhawk 60 is light enough to use a photo tripod such as the SLIK U-9000 in the field. Like other entry level spotting scopes, the Barska Blackhawk 60 uses an Achromatic objective lens, which means that some false color or blue fringing is noticeable at high power. I’ve been pleasantly surprised by the quality and value of the binoculars and spotting scopes imported by Barska the last few years. The Barska Blackhawk 60mm spotting scope simply offers very good optical performance for a very reasonable price. --Jeff Phillips Pros: Excellent price/performance ratio Very good Achromatic optics Waterproof design with rubber coating Premium hard shell case included Cons: Blue fringing noticeable at high power Limited eye relief for eyeglass wearers Barska 20 - 60x60 mm Waterproof Blackhawk Spotting Scope. Big name quality, big time VALUE! Cheap equipment just doesn't cut it. But the Barska Blackhawk 20-60x60 mm Spotting Scope gives you a great price on full-function features you'd normally pay BIG bucks to get. Engineered with unsurpassed optical performance and durability by those who understand the harsh hunting conditions scopes have to endure. Designed for the discriminating hunters who demand only the best, this Blackhawk is the best value in its class. Zoom in on the features: Big 60 mm objective increases light gathering ability for brighter images in low-light conditions; Multi-coated optics maximize light transmission for superior brightness and clarity; Powerful zoom provides 20-60x magnification; 91-45 ft F.O.V. @ 1,000 yds.... close focus: 23 ft; Complete waterproof protection is ideal for all-weather conditions; Long 18-15 mm eye relief and flip-down eyecups are perfect for glasses and non-glasses wearers alike; Glare-reducing sunshade included; Rubber armor designed to protect and absorb shock; Quality pan-head tripod; Premium hard carry case included, plus soft-side case; Approx. 15", 2 3/4 lb.; Spot your target without killing your budget.

Celestron 52250 80mm Ultima Zoom Spotting Scope
List Price: |
DescriptionSO)CELESTRON ULTIMA 80 45 DEGREE Celestron’s popular Ultima 80mm Zoom Spotting Scope offers images that are noticeably brighter and sharper than entry level 60mm spotters. The Ultima 80 is a refractor style spotting scope with an Achromatic objective lens. Excellent light transmission is assured by multi-layer anti-reflection coatings on the objective lens as well as on the zoom eyepiece and the BAK-4 prisms. The multi-coated 80mm objective lens delivers 77% brighter views than a 60mm scope, and the built in zoom lens produces sharp images from 20X all the way up to 60X magnification. The Ultima 80 features a sleek, waterproof design and includes a padded soft case with zippers on both ends so the scope can be protected even while mounted on a tripod. Including the eyepiece the Ultima 80 measures just over 18 inches long and weighs about 3.6 pounds. The rubber eyecup can be removed to expose a standard “T-thread” for attaching a camera. I like the 45* angled eyepiece because I can use a shorter tripod to support the spotting scope while viewing or while taking pictures with a small camera attached to the eyepiece. The focus ranges from 27 feet to the horizon with just a few turns of the focus knob. When I fold down the rubber eye cup I can keep my glasses on and see the whole 2 degree field of view at 20X magnification. With my glasses on I need very little focus adjustment while I crank the zoom eyepiece from 20X up to 60X. Sometimes though I like to take my glasses off while observing because the view seems to have just a little more contrast and sharpness. I like the fact that the Ultima 80 gives me a sharp image either way. The drawback of the tradition crown and flint achromatic lens used in the Ultima 80 Zoom Spotting Scope is a bit of false color, also known as blue fringing or chromatic aberration. Blue fringing seems well controlled at 20X magnification, but it becomes increasingly noticeable as I zoom up to 60X. Celestron also offers the Ultima 80ED and the Regal 80 F-ED spotting scopes which use exotic ED glass lenses to virtually eliminate blue fringing and produce the sharpest possible high power views. Shot at 20X zoom at about 20 yards, cropped 50% (Click here to see uncropped) Shot at 20X zoom at about 50 yards, cropped 30% Shot at 20X zoom, uncropped but reduced in size (Click here to see at 60X zoom) Shot at 20X zoom at about 50 yards, cropped 30% Features
