Frequently Asked Questions

1 - 2 of 2

Q1: Would this Lens Shade/Dew shield work for the Celestron FirstScope 114 EQ Short Newtonian Reflector I bought from here last year?

A: Unfortunately, the Lens Shade/Dew Shield made for the C9 scope would be way too big for the FirstScope 114.

Q2: I have a Firstscope 114 / 4.5" Newtonian Reflector Telescope. What I need to know is. Do I have a c5, c14? How do I know which c I have?

A: The Celestron FirstScope 114EQ is a member of the FirstScope series and does not carry the "C" designation. The "C" is reserved for scopes in Celestron's Advanced Series. If your scope were a "C," it would be a C4.5.

The thing to do about dew!

Celestron's C14 lens shade/dew cap is a tube of approximately the same diameter as your telescope's tube. It's designed to fit on the front end of the telescope to reduce the amount of dew that builds up on the corrector plate, ruining your view, and possibly your scope. At the same time, it serves as a lens shade, preventing stray light from falling on the corrector plate. This also greatly improves the view.

Celestron's lens shade/dew cap: it's what to do about dew (and bright sunlight)!
