Two Eyepieces :  (7.5mm and 20mm)

The 1.25" Plossl eyepieces included come in various focal lengths (7.5mm and 20mm), so you get a good range of higher or lower levels of magnification with many telescopes. The two multicoated lens e lements offer high transmission and low reflection. This eyepiece does an excellent job not only when used for observation but also for photography. Just add a universal camera adapter and a digital camera, that's all it takes for anyone to venture out for their first steps in astro photography.

Four Filters :  (ND96-0.9, #12 Yellow, #25 Red, #80A Blue)

For the astronomer, filters meangreater pleasure in observation. That's why you will find a wide assortment of filters in this eyepiece case. The ND96-0.9 filter, they are useful for splitting binary systems, comfortably observing planetary filters. Especially useful for large aperture telescopes through which the light of the Moon can be extremely overwhelming. Other colour filters are there to enhance contrast on the planets' surfaces. Certain details only come out when you intensify or attenuate different colours.

Barlow lens:  

Give your telescope eyepieces a 2x power boost! The Shorty 1.25- inch 2x Barlow Lens doubles the power of any 1.25- inch telescope eyepiece it's used with. The practical Shorty 2x Barlow effectively doubles the number of telescope eyepieces at your disposal. The Shorty 2x Barlow Lens doubles the magnifying power of any 1.25- inch eyepiece, essentially dividing the eyepiece's focal length by a factor of 2. For example: Using a 25mm eyepiece in the Shorty 2x Barlow provides the same magnification a 12.5mm eyepiece would normally exhibit (25 / 2 = 12.5).
