The AstroMaster Accessory Kit from Celestron enhances the functionality of a Celestron telescope. This kit may be used with any telescope that accepts 1.25" eyepieces and filters. It features 2 fully coated eyepieces; a 15 mm and a 6 mm Kellner. The 15 mm eyepiece will give a medium power but a wider field of view, while the 6 mm is higher power but gives a narrower field of view. There is a 2x doubling lens that will double the magnification of any eyepiece. The doubling lens has a built-on T-thread allowing a camera to be attached (t-ring required)

Filters are a great enhancement for lunar and planet viewing. They reduce glare and increase contrast, definition and resolution. The colored filters are anti-reflection coated. The Blue Planetary Filter (#80A Light Blue 30% T) will improve the seeing of Jupiter's Great Red Spot, give the polar ice caps of Mars more clarity and enhance the contrast between the belts and zones of Saturn. The Red Planetary Filter (#25 14% T) will bring out the beauty of Venus during daylight and Mercury at twilight by minimizing the brightness of the blue sky. The Moon Filter reduces the brightness of the moon and improves contrast allowing greater detail to be observed. The clear aperture of the Moon Filter is 21 mm and the transmission is about 18%.

15 mm Kellner eyepiece for a wider field of view
9 mm Kellner eyepiece for higher power
#80A Blue Planetary Filter especially good for viewing Jupiter and Saturn
#25 Red Planetary Filter especially good for viewing the contrast between the Martian surface and the dark Marias
Moon Filter to dampen the Moon's brightness so that more contrast and greater detail can be seen
Hard Plastic carrying case with fitted cut foam inside to protect the eyepieces and filters
Dimensions 6 x 6 x 2" / 15.2 x 15.2 x 5.1 cm
Weight 1 lb / 454 g

        For the price I feel that I got good value. My understanding is that these are not exceptional quality eyepieces by any stretch of the imagination, but they seem adequate for my level of experience and budget.

        I love the Barlo lense, it allows me to double the power of any eyepiece. The filters are a great asset especially looking at the moon. I recommend. I did notice that the quality of the object lessens the closer you get but that is to be expected. Plus, the price was the best on the internet. Win-Win.

        Comments about Celestron AstroMaster Accessory Kit:

        I ordered this kit to compliment my 5" reflector and to have a 2x Barlow lens in my collection. Both eyepieces work great and the Barlow is exactly what I needed. The moon filter works great when viewing a full moon and really brings the detail out especially at the Terminator. The blue lens helps me to see Jupiter's bands when at high magnification. Plus I got B&H's fast shipping and knowing it's from a reputable company.
