Digital camera reviews of Celestron Accessory Kit
Digital camera Review: Excellent
Summary: 5 Stars
I ordered this item with trepidation after reading the reviews that said that the item was never in stock. I received the item in one day. The eyepieces are of extremely high quality. The first night I was observing Jupiter and its Gallialean moons using these eyepieces along with my Nexstar 114GT. An execellent value for high quality optics.Digital camera Review: Excellent Package

I have been more than pleased with my purchase of the Celestron Accessory kit with my Nexstar 8 GPS. The eyepiece that comes with the telescope has become worthless thanks to his kit. I have gotten some excellent views of Mars, Saturn and a few deep sky objects. I highly recommend to anyone with a telescope.Digital camera Review: Excellent beginner set

Bought to go with my newly acquired Bushnell reflector which came with cheap (mostly plastic) EPs. VERY impressed so far with the improvement of these. BTW, if you want it cheaper by $20, order from www.bhphotovideo.comDigital camera Review: Excellent price / quality ratio

After many years spent without gazing at the stars I finally made my move again and bought a new Nexstar 114. It came with 2 basic eyepieces. This kit looked like a nice addition, for a fair price.I received the kit quickly, well this is Amazon... The case, as said before in other review, is sturdy and well designed. It is very convenient to carry around, and you don't have to worry about damaging your eyepieces at all. I found it very nice being able to carry all eyepieces at once, and leave the case a few feet away from my observation location, in order to grab elements I need.
The set features some extra space inside, and you can fit another 3 eyepieces. Eyepieces are of good quality. Not top of the line, yet they provide a crisp and clear view. The barlow lens is well built as well. I found the larger eyepiece (the 4mm one) to be of average quality, especially when used with the barlow lens.
Filter are well chosen and give you a good range of choices. I found the moon filter not dark enough to my taste, but it still does a nice job.
Overall, the born-again star gazer that I am is very satisfied of this very good investment.
Digital camera Review: Excellent product for an excellent price...

As has been mentioned before, you're not getting top of the line ep's here and would you expect to at this price? What you are getting though is a good selection of good quality ep's, this is a quick and easy way to fill out your accessory kit for cheap and to have a nice sturdy case to house them in. I've been using mine with my 10" Hardin dob and I have not regretted my purchase at all. The only negative to this kit was purchasing it though here, I placed an order and it was sitting unattended for 6 weeks. When I inquired if it would be shipped on the estimated ship date I was given a very vague answer that hinted at the date being unknown. I quickly cancelled the order and placed an order over at telescopesforless.com and only waited a week for the backorder to come in and be shipped out, for the same exact price as here. If you can get it through here or don't mind waiting a couple of months then do it, if you want to get to use your accessory kit I would recommend telescopesforless.
