About the Apertura Barlow Lens - 1.25”
This Apertura 2x Barlow lens is compatible with the eyepieces and filters in
this kit, and any additional 1.25” eyepieces and accessories. When coupled
with your 1.25” eyepiece, this halves their focal length, in turn increasing
the overall magnification by 2x. It features fully multi-coated optics and
blackened edges, ensuring exceptional light transmission and contrast. The
included thumb screw makes docking your eyepieces a breeze and holds them in
place all night long with a non-marring compression ring.
About the Apertura 15 mm Plossl Eyepiece - 1.25”
This 15 mm eyepiece features a generous 52° Field of View, 13 mm eye relief,
and a 4-element fully-coated optical design, setting Apertura’s 15 mm Plossl
apart from others in its class! Fully multi-coated optical lens designs not
only minimize distortion across most of the lens but also reduce light
glare, subsequently enhancing contrast for better low-light performance. The
generous 52° Field of View (FOV) is a step up from the standard entry-level
options, which are typically 40°. A larger FOV gives a more spacious
appearance, as opposed to tighter views that can feel as though you are
“looking through a straw”.
About the Apertura 40 mm Plossl Eyepiece - 1.25”
This 40 mm eyepiece is a great way to test out lower magnifications on your
telescope, but with all the same great features as the others in this kit.
Astronomers tend to use high-power magnifications on planetary, lunar, and
other relatively "small" object observations. While sticking to low-power
magnifications for larger, fainter, deep-sky objects like galaxies and
nebulae. When using a low-power eyepiece, like this classic 40 mm Plossl, on
deep-sky objects, it allows your telescope to deliver as much light as
possible to your eye. This will allow you to see fainter detail than you
would with a high-power view! This 40 mm eyepiece features a generous 45°
Field of View, 31 mm eye relief, and a 4-element fully-coated optical
design.
About the Apertura 32 mm Plossl Eyepiece - 1.25”
This 32 mm eyepiece features a generous 52° Field of View, 20 mm eye relief,
and a 4-element fully-coated optical design, setting Apertura’s 32 mm Plossl
apart from others in its class! Beginner and intermediate astronomers will
love the Apertura Plossl eyepiece series as they enhance the performance of
any telescope. The generous 52° Field of View (FOV) is a step up from the
standard entry-level options that are typically around 40°. A larger FOV
gives a more spacious appearance, as opposed to tighter views that can feel
as though you are “looking through a straw”. The blackened edges top off the
lineup of stunning optical features by further minimizing any stray light
that obstructs your observations.
About the Apertura Moon Filter - 1.25”
The Moon Filter will help you tame the incredible radiance of the Moon!
Tinting the image through your telescope with this observing accessory will
bring out the wonders of our satellite's seas and craters for an
awe-inspiring experience. Simply thread the filter to the bottom of the
provided eyepieces and reduce the light from your telescope to just about
18% of its original brightness. This new, darker and green-tinted
perspective will make the seas, craters, and mountains of the Moon shimmer
with more details and contrast, hiding behind the Moon's brilliant light.
These views are clear thanks to a quality glass substrate and
anti-reflective coating used on this filter. The Apertura Moon Filter is
compatible with every lens in this kit.
