Bought this kit for a Celestron NextStar 8-inch SC scope. Most of these eyepieces are uselss because the Celestron telescopes don't have the quality optics necessary to take advantage of their power. The most powerful eye piece (not lens or filter) would probaly only be usefull for looking directly at the sun (it's soooooo dark).It's much like mounting a 24-power Leupold scope on an Uzi: It ain't gonna do anything for your accuracy.
I am new to the hobby, and I am discovering each night out that I've missed a lot on previous nights. I haven't compared these to more expensive models too much. I did do a side by side comparison one night, and while there was a difference, I didn't see too significant an improvement in the more expensive one. As I get better at viewing, the differences might become more profound. But as for now, I am very happy with the value.
I purchased from adorama camera and was very pleased with transaction.eyepieces are very clear and case is very organized and durable.This is a great beginner to intermeadiate kit.nice addition to my konus 200mscope.thank you.
For this price, this set of lenses and filters is a VERY good buy. I'm an amateur star-gazer, and this was my first buy after purchasing the telescope. Haven't used the filters as much, but all the lenses are pretty neat. The Aluminum case is very compact and has a good feel to it. Next on the list is a solar filter. Highly recommend this.
this is the best deal on the web i have found for the money and investment. Thanks for the great deal.
