Celestron X-Cel LX 12mm Eyepiece

Highlights

Description

Celestron X-Cel LX 12mm eyepiece offers a 60º apparent field of view, perfect for the Moon, the planets, and a plethora of deep-sky objects. The premium six-element optical set is finished with multiple layers of high-transmission coatings for clear, sharp images. Optics The X-Cel LX eyepiece sports 16 mm of comfortable eye relief, and is parfocal, which means you can switch out eyepieces within the series during observing sessions and little or no additional focusing will be required. Construction The X-Cel LX eyepiece body is made of black-anodized aluminum for increased contrast. The pop-up eyecups make it easy to adjust the height for different users. Turn them in one direction to extend the length, and the other direction to provide a flat surface, preferable to most eyeglass wearers. Features A treaded rubber grip around the center of the eyepiece barrel offers secure handling, even in moist conditions or with heavy gloves on. The 1.25” insert barrel is threaded to accept filters.
