Celestron AstroMaster Telescope Accessory Kit

Received the product as per description, consisting of a 2X Barlow lens, one 6mm Plossl eyepiece, one 15mm Kellner eyepiece, a red filter, a blue filter and a moon filter. It's a must have if you own an Astromaster telescope. But buy it only after you have mastered using your telescope with its default eyepieces, and know tracking objects in sky. Do your proper research about eyepieces and their aFoV on different Astronomy forums available online, and then make your decision. Overall, I'm quite satisfied with my purchase and the quality of optics of the kit.

I am using this on my 76/700mm reflector telescope. It come with 15mm, 6mm eyepiece and 2x Barlow lens. It also include filters for moon and blue and red filter. 15mm eyepiece works best with my telescope, it has wide field of view. With my 76mm aperture telescope 6mm eyepiece is useful only to see brighter objects like Moon, Venus and Jupiter. Deep sky object like M42 nebula is difficult to see clearly with 6mm. But this is the problem of my low power telescope. Blue filter works best to watch Venus. Moon filter is also good. I do not see any use of red filter. Barlow lens give 2x power and works good with 15mm eyepiece. Overall I think this is the minimum set anyone should have for watching planets and star.

Good basic and affordable set of filters and eyepieces to start out with for the Astromaster 130EQ. The moon filter is especially good for dimming the moon and enhancing views of its features. Comes in a useful padded case- this could have been better if it could be sealed when shut to prevent moisture incursion. Taking off one star because the box appeared to have been opened- the blue filter had a fingerprint on it.

All the lenses and filters are useful and perfectly use them all with my celestrone 130 Eq. If you are beginner with telescope than also you can use it well. Excellent views with Filters. 2X Barlow lens result is awesome, We try taking pic with just barlow lens and good results.

It works very well with my astromaster 130. Wish they had a 15 mm Plossl instead of a Kellner but it's still great for under Rs 5000. The moon filter is very useful too. You will not need the colour filters for the astromaster series (and certainly not with models other than astromaster 130) as they have pretty low light gathering power as it is but they're very useful for bigger telescopes. It's worth buying this for lenses and moon filter alone.

I specifically buy this for 2x Barlow with t-adapter thread, because celestron universal 2x Barlow cost is to much is 5k inr. So Decided to celestron kit, i just add 4k inr more and get extra benifit of filter & Eyepieces. I see original celestron only single eyepieces is worth 3k , This is a great decision in my option.

Filters very good while observing the planets, 2x power lense shows clear image.Packaging is better, more all best accessory kit for beginners

The Celestron Astromaster Accessory kit offers a well rounded array of things that you'll need to get the most out of your telescope. Going over the individual items that you get in the kit- 6mm Plossl eyepiece- I found myself staying away from this eyepiece as the field of view is restricted, contrast is lacking, and the eye relief is very less too. Details on planets didn't show a great improvement as compared to longer focal length eyepieces and overall it was a hassle to use. 15mm Kellner- Undoubtedly one of my new favourite eyepieces in my collection. Wide field of view, high contrast in planets and great for moon observations and scanning star rich regions of the sky. Coupled with the Barlow lens, it's a great performer. 2x Barlow: An economic option for a Barlow lens, it works well with all my eyepieces. I use it mostly with my 10mm, although high magnification with the 6mm is possible. Filters: The Moon filter is again an economic option but not the best one, it gives a green tinge to the moon but it works satisfactorily. The blue filter worked great for Jupiter and Mars, but the red filter didn't find much use. I would recommend this kit as this is the bare minimum you need to do basic observations with your telescope. The 6mm might have a small FoV, but it still gives high magnification views with and without the Barlow. The 15 mm is a stellar performer, and the Barlow lens and filters do their job. Overall, a decent product that lived up to its expectations.
