• Lanthanum Eyepieces (LV Series) - Lanthanum is a unique rare earth
glass used in one of the field lenses of this new eyepiece. The Lantha-
num glass reduces aberrations to a minimum. All are fully multicoated
and have an astounding 20mm of eye relief — perfect for eyeglass
wearers! In the 1-1/4" barrel diameter, they are available in the following
focal lengths: 2.5mm, 4mm, 5mm, 6mm, 9mm, 10mm, 12mm and
15mm. Celestron also offers the LV Zoom eyepiece (#3777) with a focal
length of 8mm to 24mm. It offers an apparent field of 40
o
at 24mm and
60
o
at 8mm. Eye relief ranges from 15mm to 19mm.
Night Vision Flashlight - (#93588) - Celestron’s premium model for as-
tronomy, using two red LEDs to preserve night vision better than red filters or
other devices. Brightness is adjustable. Operates on a single 9 volt battery
(included).
Moon Filter (94119-A) - Celestron’s Moon Filter is an economical eyepiece
filter for reducing the brightness of the moon and improving contrast, so
greater detail can be observed on the lunar surface. The clear aperture is
21mm and the transmission is about 18%.
Planisphere (93720) - A simple and inexpensive tool for all levels of observers,
from naked eye viewers to users of highly sophisticated telescopes. The
Celestron Planisphere makes it easy to locate stars for observing and is a
great planet finder as well. A map of the night sky, oriented by month and day,
rotates within a depiction of the 24 hours of the day, to display exactly which
stars and planets will be visible at any given time. Ingeniously simple to use,
yet quite effective. Made of durable materials and coated for added
protection. Celestron Planispheres come in three different models, to match
the latitude from which you’re observing:
For 20° to 40° of latitude 93720-30
For 30° to 50° of latitude 93720-40
For 40° to 60° of latitude 93720-50
Photographic Tripod (#93596) - Even at low power, your C5 Spotting Scope
produces too much power to hand hold. For the best results, use a stable
platform like the Celestron Photographic Tripod. This tripod has an oil fluid pan
head for smooth panning. The quick release head allows you to attach and
remove the C5 quick and easily. It is extremely lightweight and rigid.
Reducer/Corrector (#94175) - This lens reduces the focal length of the
telescope by 37%, making your spotting scope a 787.5mm f/6.3 instrument.
In addition, this unique lens also corrects inherent aberrations to produce crisp
images all the way across the field when used visually. When used photo-
graphically, there is some vignetting that produces a 26mm circular image on
the processed film.
Sky Map (#93722) - Celestron Sky Maps are the ideal teaching guide for
learning the night sky. You wouldn’t set off on a road trip without a road map,
and you don’t need to try to navigate the night sky without a map either. Even
if you already know your way around the major constellations, these maps can
help you locate all kinds of fascinating objects.
