Frequently Asked Questions

1 - 5 of 5

Q1: Will it be possible to use 1.25" eyepieces after installing the 2" diagonal? Thanks

A: Not really, when you have installed an adapter for 2" eyepieces that is the format it will fit. Unless you take off the adapter when using the 1.25" eyepieces.

Q2: Hello, I would like to know if in this kit Celestron Eyepiece and Filter Kit - 2 Inch Format sku: 94305 the 2" diagonal comes with the 2"-1.25" adapter ring? I don't see it in the picture, but the same kit on Astronomics as the 2"-1.25" converter adapter. Please advise? Thank you, Peter

A: The Barlow does include the adapter ring; you can't see it in the picture because the kit ships with the ring already installed in the Barlow. Thanks for calling this to our attention, Peter. We've revised our product description to make it clear that the adapter ring is included.

Q3: Willt this item work with my Bushnell Goto 100mm Maksutov-Cassegrain Compact w/RVO

A: No, the Zhumell 2-inch Eyepiece and Filter Kit will not work with the Bushnell scope. You'll need eyepiece and filters in 1.25-inch format. Here's the URL for the Zhumell version; just paste it into your browser's address window: http://telescopes.com/products/meade-eyepiece-holder-1-25-inch-for-attaching-1-25-imagers-to-scts-18618.html. And here's the URL for the Celestron version: http://telescopes.com/products/celestron-eyepiece-and-filter-kit-1-25-inch-format-11535.html.

Q4: How does the quality of the eyepieces in the Celestron 2inch format eyepiece and filter kit compare to the Zhumell Superwide achromatic 2inch eyepieces? How do they compare in Field of view?

A: Optical quality of the Celestron and Zhumell eyepieces is roughly comparable. However, all the Zhumell Super Wide eyepieces offer a 58-degree field of view, vs. the 50- and 56-degree fields of the Celestrons.

Q5: If I want to have an eyepiece that can view the farthest, do I have to choose a 35mm or a 10mm?

A: A 10mm eyepiece will magnify more than a 35mm eyepiece. It will make objects your scope brings in appear larger than they would with a 35mm eyepiece.
