Page 11: Diagonals
IAGONALS Diagonals: .96" and 1 Celestron’s Erect Image Diagonals are an Amici prism design. This design allows you to look into the telescope at a 45° angle, at images that are oriented properly, meaning the image is upright and correct from left to right. Use of Celestron’s .96" to 1 "... -
Page 12: Finderscopes
INDERSCOPES Finderscopes are secondary scopes, used to help locate objects in the main telescope. The larger the finderscope, the more you’ll see, to an upper limit of 50mm. Units larger than 50mm have too narrow a field of view to be useful. Finderscopes mount onto the main telescope tube and are an invaluable tool in locating objects for viewing. - Page 13 Star Pointer can be used during daytime observing as well. It’s also a handy guide when using binoculars. Attaches to any telescope easily. Extra bases are available (#51631) to make it easy to move the Star Pointer for use on different telescopes.

Page 14: Filters
ILTERS Eyepiece filters are an invaluable aid in lunar and planetary observing. They reduce glare and light scattering, increase contrast through selective filtration, increase definition and resolution, reduce irradiation and lessen eye fatigue. Celestron’s filters are made of high quality, solid plane parallel glass with excel- lent homogeneity. - Page 15 #8 Yellow 83% T [Series 4] All observing information for this filter is the same as that given for the #12 and #15 Deep Yellow filters, with the exception of the following: Mars – Improves the Martian maria by reducing scattered light from blue areas, while allowing passage of more green light for studying yellow dust clouds.
- Page 16 GREEN #56 Light Green 53% T [Series 2] Moon– Enhances lunar features. Jupiter – Increases visibility of the Great Red Spot. Useful for observing the low-contrast hues of blue and red that exist in the Jovian atmosphere. Mars – Excellent for increased contrast of Martian polar caps, low clouds and yellowish dust storms.

Page 17: Polarizing, Skylight, Moon
" Polarizing Filter Set: – #93608 Ambient daylight is normally comprised of multiple wavelengths of light, vibrating in multiple planes. The Eyepiece Polarizing Filter Set transmits only light moving along a specific plane, thereby increasing the contrast between surfaces with different planar transmissions. Generally, the polarization effect makes blue skies a deeper blue, eliminates surface reflections and helps reduce atmospheric haze. -
Page 18: Solar
Solar Filters Celestron’s Solar Skreen ® solar filters transmit .001% of visible light, allowing direct observation of the sun. You can see sunspots and the mottled areas known as granules with these filters. In addition to reducing the intensity of the sun’s visible light, they also block 99.999% of invisible infrared light, so you can observe the sun in complete safety and comfort. -
Page 19: Lpr
LPR Filters #94127A Light Pollution Reduction (LPR) Filters are designed to selectively reduce the transmission of certain wavelengths of light, specifically those produced by artificial light. This includes mercury, and both high and low pressure sodium vapor lights. In addition, they block unwanted natural light caused by neutral oxygen emission in our atmosphere (i.e. -

Page 24: Counterweights
Counterweights Using accessories such as cameras, Lens Shades, Tele-Extenders and the 2" Diagonal will affect the balance of your Celestron Schmidt-Cassegrain telescope. Counterweights restore proper balance, increasing ease in handling and improved tracking accuracy. You don’t need perfect balance to operate your telescope. In fact, it’s not always possible to achieve perfect balance with fixed-position weights. -
