Description

Dielectric Star Diagonal 1.25" with Twist LockEnsure maximum light transmission without loss of optical quality with the Celestron Dielectric Star Diagonal, 1. 25” with Twist-Lock. Upgrade your existing star diagonal to this premium one and enjoy brighter, sharper images without replacing your telescope. This star diagonal reflects the telescope’s light path 90° to provide a more comfortable viewing angle. In addition, the glass has 58 layers of dielectric coatings, which provide an over 99% reflective surface, delivering the maximum amount of light to the eyepiece. The twist-lock eyepiece holder secures any 1. 25” eyepieces while keeping them centered in the diagonal, thus providing best opto-mechanical alignment between the telescope and eyepiece. Unlike traditional thumb screws, the twist-lock cannot scratch or engrave the barrel of your eyepieces. The twist-lock has an integrated 1. 25” barrel stop that prevents 1. 25” accessories with long barrels from damaging the mirror. All the diagonal’s mechanical parts are made of machined black anodized aluminum, except the twist lock rings, which are orange anodized for visibility. The interior of the barrel is glare threaded and painted flat black to prevent glare. With all its features and these high- end finishes, the Celestron Dielectric Star Diagonal, 1. 25” with Twist-Lock is one of the highest quality 1. 25" star diagonals that Celestron has ever offered. The key specifications for a star diagonal are its reflectivity and its optical quality. This diagonal delivers top performance in both categories, with an over 99% reflective mirror and diffraction-limited optical quality. This ensures that virtually all the light collected by the telescope will reach the eyepiece without the diagonal affecting optical performance. Using a lower quality star diagonal can both dim the view and degrade optical quality. You can enjoy better views from your telescope by simply swapping out its diagonal for a premium one, like the Celestron Dielectric Star Diagonal.Celestron 93529 X-Cel LX 1.25-Inch 2x Barlow Lens (Black)When inserted between the eyepiece and telescope, this x-cel 2x Barlow lens doubles the magnification of all your 1. 25" Eyepieces. The premium apochromatic optics yield High contrast, sharp images, virtually free of false color. The Black anodized housing with orange highlights matches the eyepieces in the Celestron x-cel LX line. A centralized rubber grip helps to keep your hands securely on the barrel, even when your fingers are cold or you are wearing gloves. A brass compression ring just inside the top of the x-cel Barlow grabs your eyepiece gently but firmly when you turn the thumbscrew. Once the thumbscrew has been secured in place, the brass ring keeps your eyepiece in the Barlow instead of relying on the tip of the thumbscrew itself, offering a better grip and protecting the barrel from scratches. The barrel of the Celestron x-cel LX 2x Barlow is threaded to accept 1. 25" Filters, allowing you to change eyepieces without removing and re-attaching the filter from each eyepiece barrel.
