Celestron X-Cel LX 2.3mm Eyepiece

Celestron's X-Cel LX series eyepieces boast a 60-degree apparent field of view, making them ideal for observing the Moon, planets, and a wide variety of deep-sky objects. The premium six-element optical design is finished with multiple layers of high-transmission coatings, ensuring clear and sharp images. Additionally, the edges of the optics are blackened, enhancing contrast for an improved viewing experience.

The X-Cel LX eyepieces feature 16mm of comfortable eye relief, and they are parfocal, allowing users to switch between eyepieces within the series without the need for significant refocusing during observing sessions.

The eyepiece body is crafted from black-anodized aluminum, providing a durable and sleek appearance. The pop-up eyecups make it easy to adjust the height to accommodate different users, with the option to extend the length or provide a flat surface, which is preferred by many eyeglass wearers.

For secure handling, even in moist conditions or with heavy gloves, the X-Cel LX eyepieces feature a treaded rubber grip around the center of the barrel. Additionally, the 1.25-inch insert barrel is threaded to accept filters, further enhancing the versatility of these eyepieces.

Optimized for planetary viewing, the X-Cel LX eyepieces offer a 60-degree field of view through a six-element, fully multi-coated lens system. The pop-up rubber eyeguards provide comfort and increase contrast, allowing users to raise and lower them with a simple twist.

The treaded rubber grip ensures a secure, no-slip grip, even with gloves on, making the X-Cel LX eyepieces a reliable choice for a wide range of observing conditions.
