In observation, sometimes the weather can be a huge factor on the performance of your telescope. The addition of a dew shield can turn some of the most weathered evenings of observation into some of the best! AstroZap makes a variety of Dew Shields to fit many telescopes manufactured by companies such as Celestron, Meade, and Takahashi just to name a few.

Each Astrozap Dew Shield is constructed of high quality ABS-grade polymers. There are Velcro fasteners that ensure a snug fit around your scope and padding to prevent scratching on the telescope's finish. Whether you are traveling to observe or staying within the comforts of your own home, each Astrozap Dew Shield can be easily stored by rolling up to a convenient size. Overall, the Astrozap Dew Shield is a unique and important component to observation. No one can truly predict weather conditions so don't run the risk of being left without one!
