Celestron 1.25" Eyepiece and Filter Kit Review

[@hammettl]

I bought the set so I could experiment with focal lengths and filters before I invested in good quality replacements. For that use the set served me well. After testing out the set I bought a high quality 17 and 14. Wouldn’t have known which focal lengths worked well for me without the set. Good review.

[@soyeldiego86]

The case is the best part about the lens kit 😂😂😂

[@dannysastronomy6894]

Haha right. 😂😧

[@omarmarquez2953]

😂😂😂😂

[@foorankoo9274]

Really helpful and honest review. After 4 years use, I'd say you know what you're talkin about. Thx, Sly

[@southtexasscratcher4139]

I'm using a 16 inch dob,and the filter set works great for me. In order to see detail with filters I recommend a telescope 8 inch aperture and above so that the filter won't be quite as dim. But great video man I'm with you,my least filter is the dark red it just feels useless very dark.

[@joneslu1377]

This video is so useful, not just in terms of reviewing the kit, but bringinh so much knowledge. Really appreciate it.

[@packetcowboy]

hmmm..... I’ve had this very kit, and I gotta say that I completely disagree. I’ve used all of the eyepieces and especially the filters. While I agree that the eye relief is poor in the eyepieces below 17mm while wearing eyeglasses, but thats standard for all plossl eyepieces regardless of the manufacturer. Taking off my eyeglasses at the lower fl solved that problem until I needed a newer prescription. But that’s due to my age (much older than you), not the eyepieces. You can’t fault the kit for the low eye relief. It’s inherent to the plossl optical design at lower fl. Optically, the eyepieces are quite good, and perform well in in my 250mm dia. 1200mm fl Skywatcher Dob. Regarding the filters, I’ve seen the details as stated in the instructions. So I’m wondering about your telescope, the amount of observing experience you’ve had, your observing site, and how well your eyes were dark adapted when observing with this kit at the time this video review was first recorded. This kit is meant as a starter kit, and fullfills that purpose quite well. I gave it to my daughter once I upgraded to all 82 deg. explore scientific eyepieces and orion’s filter kit.

[@Mrcloc]

But you can use the 17mm plus the barlow to get you 8.5mm, and it would be better to do the same with the 13mm to get 6.5mm. The 6mm and 8mm are redundant in the kit. I agree it's worth buying, even if only for the 17mm, 32mm, moon filter, and case.

[@GoodMD2]

Thank You for the review. Being very new to the hobby I have been looking at this kit. I'm glad I saw your review so that I can find a separate quality Barlow, moon filter and a couple of eye pieces that I will be happy with.

[@enki1003]

thanks for making a logical review, i am buying just what i may use the most

[@AstroBlender]

You got it!

[@MountainFisher]

I have 4 light filters and and one of them is a city light suppression CLS ultra high contrast, great for Jupiter. The other filters I have are light colors not dark ones, try a yellow-green filter and light violet. I use a polarizing filter that gets darker as you turn it for a bright moon.

[@PafMedic]

Ive Had These About 4 Years Along With My 1st Goto’s,Totally Agree With The 32 and 17,But Not A Bad Beginner Set,Ive “Used These With My 114LCM,and Got A 6se A Year Later,I Have Added To Those Since,Now In Search 😢Of Good 2” EP,For My Skywatcher,Good Review and Clear Skies🙏🏻✨🔭🌏

[@Mrcloc]

Buy the Celestron kit, take out the 6, 8, and 13, and drop in the Expanse (or cheaper equivalent) 6, 9 and 15. At the moment the Celestron kit goes for around $180. If you buy just a 17mm, 32mm, 2x barlow, and a moon filter, you're already on about $140. You can't buy a case like that for $40. An eyepiece case is one of the most useful things I got for myself. You could maybe have mentioned that the Expanse do have caveats. But I agree, they're excellent.

[@commercechiro]

Hey Slymin, Great review on this kit. I was about to pull the trigger and order it but decided to do a bit more research,,, what do you think of the Celestron 93230 8 to 24mm 1.25 Zoom Eyepiece? It has pretty good reviews on amazon and looked like it could save a lot of space/troubles with having so many different eye pieces. Any thoughts?

[@AstroBlender]

+David Seastedt That's a good one. I especially like that one if you don't have a lot of room to carry eyepieces, and it gives pleasing views as well. The zoom eyepieces also give you a really good picture of what focal length eyepiece you like to observe with. That way when you are ready to buy really quality eyepieces you can buy them at the focal length you know that you like. I hope that helps!

[@MR.MR.88]

Get the baader hyperion zoom instead, its a notch better :)

[@qtino8777]

Hey, I'm new to telescopes and I just wanted to ask if these eye pieces would work on an Orion SkyQuest XT8 (203mm) Classic Dobsonian Telescope. And I know this video is kind of old, are there any newer eye piece kits that you would recommend?

[@chappyman999]

This was interesting to watch, we bought this at about the same time and have the same opinions. Was wondering if you were going to give props to the 17mm and the 32mm and you did. Personally I've gotten a good amount of use from the filters.

[@tahmidhossain007]

could you explain how you got the filters work? been struggling with those.

[@chappyman999]

The filters are best used for planetary viewing. Different filters can assist in seeing different features on the planets. I've found a couple very useful for Jupiter and Mars.

[@davidsussman7476]

This is an older video, and the Celestron eyepiece kit has gotten worse and pricier at $190. I avoided it, as it now gives you some bizarre inclusions:eyepieces at 4, 6, 9, 16, and 32mm. The 4mm will be too strong for most telescopes. But it also includes a 3x Barlow! Utterly useless and a ploy to trick customers into thinking that they’ll have super-powerful eyepieces, even though three of the resulting focal lengths are unusable. I agree that only the moon filter is helpful, and those can be purchased cheaply for $10 or so. At best, a person might find one of the color filters interesting or useful. My only nitpick with this video is the presenter’s criticism of the 6, 8, and 13mm eyepieces because of eye relief alone (it seems?). The plossl design has less eye relief at shorter focal lengths; that’s the optical reality of them. Little can be done about it. Usually, plossls offer consistent, clear, sharp views (at very high magnification, the views get dark and a bit fuzzy, but that’s true in general for all eyepieces), and plossls are very affordable. Their only other small drawback is the smaller apparent field of view, which is around 50 degrees. Overall, nice video, though.

[@MartyInLa]

I've got a Celestron 9mm Plossl, ya the eye relief is terrible, as is the field of view. It's kind of good looking at details of the moon, and Saturn for the 30 seconds it will be in your field of view if you can find it.

[@albro8853]

I have a 5SE and It's really funny how I have absolutely no problem whatsoever with the 6mm, 8mm and 13mm eye relief. I am able to clearly see Saturn with any of them. The filters yes besides the moon they are not used very much. But to me they are just bonus. With all 6 eyepiece at that price it's a steal. My scope came with a 25mm, so I have: 32,25,17,13,8 and 6 mm, I am pretty much all set for any kind of viewing. Actually I am using quite alot the 8 and 13mm, if you want to look at Jupiter or Saturn and do not want to see a very tiny, that's the one you use. The case also is very nice. The barlow needs to be replaced though. So I would say this kit is worth it save for the Barlow. The eye relief is never has bad as he is mentionning... maybe on the 6 mm it's a little tougher but even so... The 8mm or 13 mm definitely has Zero eye relief issue. It's definitely a good kit for the price for beginners.

[@bkvdpw]

I'm WAY late to this party but I have a question . . . is the short relief a function of these particular lenses or is it a function of Plossls in general?

[@jeremeygloyd2894]

Thanks for your video! I was thinking about buying the kit just because I needed better lenses than came with my telescope. But after seeing your video I believe it saved me 150$ lol.

[@jacobusstrydom7017]

Most honest review I have seen. Thanks

[@ruineutro1]

Hello Slymin. I am new using telescope and I just have a 10mm and a 20mm for a Celestron Astromaster 90AZ. What other eye pieces should I get? Specially to see planets.

[@MatthewHKnight]

never bought this set but I bought a blue and red filter off eBay would not recommend filters like these even nebula filter I feel is a waste of money. came across your video as I'm looking for more videos on the revolution imager r2 kinda thinking about buying one for my 5se might be cool to take with me to star parties.

[@rosaevelynsalas9043]

Hi....can the Celestron Powereseeker telescope can be substituted with the Orion moon filters? Will it fit to the hole of the telescope? Thanks from Lyn Phils

[@profgyland2]

This is an honest review. Highly recommended to view.

[@puneetbanga3745]

Hey, I have bought 8 inch Orion Dobsonian telescope, in the package, I got one deep view eyepiece, 1.25 Barlow lens, and 25mm eyepiece. Can you please suggest to me which other eyepieces I should buy to view crisp views of Jupiter, Mars, Saturn, and other planets.

[@davidbrown1914]

Minus the filters and barlow, would it be a comparable option to just go with a zoom lense?

[@jadevladi880]

I have the Orion version of this kit. The filters are more for taking pictures with long exposures. I agree tho with the comments about the 3 higher magnification EPs they are not that great.

[@andrewpattie358]

Hello Nice review would u say the celestron zoom eyepiece would be better for a new starter instead?

[@MR.MR.88]

Get the baader hyperion zoom, its a better choise u never gonna sell :)

[@philnolan7193]

Hi Slymin, thank you for your honest review. I am a complete newbie and have just brought a Celestron 127 Mak, and wondered what would you recommend as a good moon filter? What do you think of the quality of the standard eyepieces and do you think it is worth upgrading to the Orion Expanse eyepieces. Initially I want to look at the moon and maybe other planets.

[@AstroBlender]

Yeah I would save the money and buy a couple of nicer eyepieces then what the 127 comes with. Congratulations by the way, a 5" Maksutov-Cassgrain is a great piece of glass! I am not too picky when it comes to moon filters. Any should really do the job.

[@philnolan7193]

Thanks heaps for that valuable info

[@nikolagovorko7196]

Honest review, much appreciated. Why don't you provide affiliate links for the products you do recommend in the video description? Get something back for the effort invested in making these videos, I'm sure no one reasonable would mind that and many of us would actually appreciate it.

[@ronaldwest2264]

I wondered if it was my telescope that was out of focus. I found the 6 and 8 mm totally useless. Like looking in a kaleidoscope with a really dark fuzzy image and the fuzzy image keeps moving all over the place. I highly DON'T recommend those sizes. The eyepiece kit came with my telescope so it wasn't a waste of money but I will probably sell it and buy a few really good ones in 40, 32, and 25 and use the barlow if I want to get more magnification. I like the point you made about having the best on hand for showing people the most stunning images to get them excited because it's more disappointing for me when I show someone a disappointing image. Thanks for your review.

[@AstroBlender]

Yeah, I usually observe from the 20mm to 40mm range, but use two inch eyepieces with a good AFOV and it seems to work well for me.

[@HOMER122767]

great vid. i just bought a AWB OneSky Reflector Telescope. what would you recommend eyepiece for this scope. thanks

[@DaveGIS123]

I use the Celestron 2" eyepiece set and find I get good eye relief, even when wearing glasses.

[@Munky332]

What about just getting a zoom? something like an 8mm-24mm with a 2x or 3x barlow?

[@kanopus06]

I have a 2 inch Skywatcher 28mm eyepiece that came with my telescope for free, and 1.25 inch Baader Orthoscopic 10mm, 6mm and 2.25x barlow lens. I'm pretty happy with them, good performance for the price (~ 65€ each). So that's about 200$ for the 2 1.25 inch eyepieces and the barlow.

[@REV12-777]

How does the 1.25 kit match up with the 2"?

[@AstroBlender]

The 2" kit is a lot better in terms of eyepieces, but the diagonal it comes with isn't very good at all.

[@danielwarwick1039]

Great info I'll give you and A on your honesty keep up the great work God Bless

[@parhamray4843]

Hey there, I was just wondering does a 3mm eyepiece or lower exist? Thanks!

[@AstroBlender]

+YouAreFunny Sir They sure do! for a quality eyepiece check out TeleVue.

[@parhamray4843]

Hey hanks could you give me a link to the 2 or 1 mm eyepiece I could not find it thanks man! Btw i have a 600mm celestron astromaster telescope so I think 2mm=300x 1mm=600x Thanks again!

[@shaughnwright7499]

Ok, I didn't know about the eye cups lol

[@danielbuttons5535]

How do the planets look like without any image software ?

[@johnjriggsarchery2457]

Hi, everyone has their own take on things: I favor going with wide fields.. Like Explore Scientific in 82 degrees. Instead of having a lot of eyepieces, I would suggest two really good wide fields, whether ES, Orion, or Baader (they all have good eye relief), and then adding a Barlow. The Barlow in real terms doubles the number of eyepieces. I'm sorry, Plossl, but spend a little extra and have 2 wider fields that serve a lot of purposes. Heck, if you cant afford two good wide fields, get one along with a good quality Barlow. We can live without planetary filters, but you're right, Moon filters are a good thing.

[@AstroBlender]

Yeah, I always use my 2" eyepieces now. I have some of the older Explore Scientific 70 degree series eyepieces and they are great. I have used one of their 100 degree eyepieces, and wow... just incredible!

[@DagonFF]

Filtering some wavelengths is the basic of astronomy and optics

[@PuneetBanga26Aug]

Very useful information. Can we use these celestron eye pieces to orion xt8 dob telescope

[@AstroBlender]

Puneet Banga You sure can.

[@sb9889]

could you review the orion expanse eyepieces?? I heard that they are good for wide fields, but decent plossls (meade 4000, orion sirius) are slightly sharper for planetary...

[@AstroBlender]

Yes, I have all 4 Orion Plossl eyepieces and have been planning a review on them.

[@omerasaf2204]

My first question is " Are this eyepieces useful in nexstar 130 eq? " I am sorry for my grammer mistakes.

[@omerasaf2204]

Ow i write it wrong it no nexstar its starmaster.

[@mertus4395]

@@omerasaf2204 Actually, it's called Astromaster lol But, any eyepiece can be used on a telescope, but as him said, they've horrible eye relief. Most amateur astronomers recommend buying one good quality eyepiece a time, in long term you'll be more satisfied with your equipment. And sorry for my grammar too, I'm not a native speaker either haha

[@omerasaf2204]

Aha i understand but from that time i change my mind i think i will buy redcat 51 from william optic and for star tracker i will buy skyguider pro. What do you think? About thia set? And after i buy this set i will make some money and buy canon rp for camera.

[@JasperJanssen]

How do *these* celestron plossls compare to the celestron Omni? Those are also plossls, aren’t they?

[@k.h.1587]

Hard to say because both the kit and the omni have changed manufacturers over the years. The old kit that was 4 6 9 15 32 was made by GSO as were the older omni. The omni are fully multicoated and supposedly the kit plossls have lesser coatings. The current omni is made by synta and I have the 9 12 and 15 (and an older 40mm gso omni) and am pleasantly surprised. The 15 is really nice and and the gso 15 s had horrible edge issues, no sharp field stop and the current China made ones don't have that problem

I am not sure how to utilize this with the 127EQ :'( help me plz. which one I can use instead of the crappy eye piece they gaveme

[@AstroBlender]

+Tarek Abbasi Any of these would work with the 127 EQ. If you want really good eyepieces, check out the Orion Expanse series. Honestly, just about anything is better then what a 127 EQ would come with.

[@FernandoMartinez-rp5us]

Does this work on Celestron Nextar 90gt?

[@desmondmoney1794]

what telescope do you use

[@skyprop]

Tell me what telescope focal length and diameter you used these items on. Tell me? Perhaps this was not the right set for your scope. What are you using them on scope wise? you could imagine that this set may work poor on some scopes but perhaps great on other scopes. What is you focal ratio:? tell me. Me, I buy the scope first and then try to find a MATCHING set of eyepieces that should work well with my scope specifics. After that I move to filters to meet my Observing needs. If these items were NOT matched well with your scope to begin with how can you give them a poor rating? You know how to choose eyepieces for YOUR Focal ratio and Focal length right? Do You? Each Telescope you own should practically have it's own set of Eyepieces. a few though may crossover depending on focal length. Not a biggie here, but More Info on the Scope you used here would have been better. Thanks. Keep it up.

[@skyprop]

I'm not bitching here but really laying out all the facets and points one needs to know and use before giving an item a bum review. The more Info we have the better it is for us to decide on an item or not.

[@AstroBlender]

Yes, these were used on a Celestron 8" Schmidt Cassegrain at f/10 and reduced at f/6.3, so focal length about 2032mm and 1280mm. Yes, I know how to select eyepieces for a specific telescope. At f/10 these eyepieces should perform fine, but the 6mm and 8mm weren't up to par for me. At f/6.3 the edges of the field of view have significant coma and oblong stars all the way up to the 17mm eyepiece. Perhaps they would work better in something even slower like a Celestron NexStar 4 SE at f/13. In my opinion though, an eyepiece that has distortions at f/10 isn't a very good eyepiece. Thanks and take care.

[@bowrudder899]

I use a 5mm on clusters, and the blue filter on Jupiter all the time.

[@carollshelby500]

As of 7/23/2018 Celestron has this kit for $170 "Thank You Slymin" you Saved me a bunch, I have eye problems due to a wreck so this would been a waste of money for the lower mm's & filters. I have a moon filter so I'll buy my eyepieces separately "Thanks for the review"..….

[@albro8853]

CHUCK DAVIS Well I am using this kit with a Nexstar 5se and to be honest I disagree with what he says, I am able to see Saturn with the 6 mm with no problem at all. No eye relief problem. For the price it's unbeatable with filters and all. The Moon filter will be used the most though, the case is nice too. Actually the only thing that is junk is the barlow, that I am going to replace. It's funny how he says alot of people bash the Barlow and he says he like it... But no.. People are right it's the thing that needs to get replaced, it actually adds a lot of blur, it's a 2 lens Barlow which is simply bad

[@KudaChen]

HI Alexandre I guess its like movie & video game reviews & ratings some will like & some will not like the only way is to try for yourself, I'm still considering getting this set I already have a Moon filter & 2x Barlow lens. I recently got an Orion 80ST 80mm Equatorial Refractor Telescope & want to get some good eyepieces the 10mm & 25mm came with it, my 2x Barlow is from my 16 yr. old Meade 50mm & its not clear either when using it like you described yours is also. What size are you going to replace your 2x Barlow with, is going higher to a 3x or 5x any better with my 80mm. "I'm still in the beginners stage of Astronomy & sounds that you know well from experience"...…….

Filters are for photography

[@sailorman8668]

Filters are also for visual viewing, especially the moon, which would usually be far too bright and without much contrast between the light and dark surface areas, without using a filter.

[@DuderinoDeux]

As is polar alignment and the relevant technology involved but it's good to understand and have a knowledge especially if you have an equatorial mount.

[@avarg1291]

wait, wut is eye relief?

[@klmusic9132]

It's how much distance you can place your eye away from the eyepiece, to see the full field of view. Let's say if you have a eyepiece that has 10 millimeters of eye relief, that means you can place your eye 10 millimeters from the eyepiece to see the full field of view. Instead of putting your eye right up to the glass.

[@sandragayle7866]

Hay that seems to be what people say about this companies products period Including the telescope.

[@k.h.1587]

Dude lost all credibility when he said the expanse is better. Wider maybe, but sharpness and ghost reflections are much worse in an expanse and this has been known for a while. Forum schmoe plossl hate and the blind leading the blind is clearly influencing this. Clearly the lack of eye relief and difficulty of use is translating into poor views which are NOT the case. Seeing is NOT being taken into consideration here. There is a reason televue does not make a plossl smaller than 8mm and previously 7.4mm , and 8mm is pushing it but certainly useable. The 6mm does give good views if the seeing permits and the scope is cooled and collimated. Because a 6mm expanse has a bigger eye lens and a little more eye relief and a much wider field, it makes a more pleasurable experience, but in critical planetary observation the 6mm plossl is probably going to show more detail. 17mm plossls tend to be a sweet spot, but the 13 shouldn't be bad at all. Methinks the smaller lenses as well as the fact that the higher you go the softer it gets no matter what you are using, is influencing his perception of the quality of the view. These are made either by GSO or Synta who both make decent plossls, I find the synta (China) plossls to be a tad better than GSO (Taiwan) plossls in my experience but it is a subtle difference, and the GSO made 15mm plossls had edge issues so the older set of 4 6 9 15 32 that was GSO made is not as good as the 6 8 13 17 32 kit that I can't say for sure which one makes it since I have not been in the industry since 2011, but I suspect it is made by synta like the current omni plossls which were made by GSO in the past. Same applies to Orion Sirius and highlight which had a long period of being made by GSO, but the ones that come with their synta made scopes (25mm and 10mm) are made by Synta and I found them to be a tad sharper than the 26mm and 9mm sold individually made by GSO. In general I don't suggest 6mm and even 8mm plossls due to the same reasons, but if they are all you can afford, they do give textbook views (in most name brand ones, there are poor quality plossls out there now from off brands like svbony or some generic ones), and are only difficult to use due to the tiny lens and lack of eye relief. I find 12mm to be where a plossl starts to become easy enough to look through to not be a difficult experience.
