Продукт өзгөчөлүктөрү

Premium ED Objective Lenses

The Extra-Low Dispersion (ED) glass significantly reduces chromatic aberration, or color fringing, which is a common optical defect. This results in razor-sharp images with accurate, true-to-life color reproduction, enhancing your viewтажрыйбасы.

XLT Lens Coatings

All air-to-glass surfaces are treated with Celestron’s proprietary XLT coatings. These advanced coatings maximize light transmission through the optical path, leading to brighter images and increased resolution and contrast, especially beneficial in low-light conditions.

Angled Design with Rotating Mount

The 45° angled body provides comfort during extended viewing sessions. The rotating tripod mount allows you to adjust the eyepiece to various viewing angles, making it easier to share views with others or observe from different positions.

Dual Focus Mechanism

The ergonomic dual focus mechanism features both coarse and fine focus knobs. This allows for quick initial focusing and precise fine-tuning to achieve a crisp, sharp image.

Rugged and Field-Ready Construction

The durable magnesium alloy body is waterproof and nitrogen-purged, preventing internal fogging in varying temperatures and humidity. It is wrapped in slip-resistant rubber armor for enhanced grip and protection. A built-in lens shade further protects the objective lens and reduces glare.

Техникалык тейлөө

• Тазалоочу линзалар: Use the included lens cloth or a soft, lint-free cloth specifically designed for optics. Breathe lightly on the lens to provide moisture, then gently wipe. For stubborn smudges, use a small amount of optical lens cleaning fluid on the cloth. Avoid abrasive materials or excessive pressure.
