Celestron X-Cel LX 12 mm Eyepiece (60°, 1.25 inch)

Celestron X-Cel LX 12 mm eyepiece

The Celestron X-Cel LX 12 mm is an eyepiece with a 60-degree apparent field of view and 16 mm eye relief, allowing you to see the entire image even with glasses. Six fully multi-coated lenses in four groups provide a clear and contrast-rich image. You can rotate the eyepiece to the distance that is comfortable for you.

For globular clusters, small nebulae and the entire moon in one image. The magnification can be calculated by dividing the brandpoint of your telescope by 12: at 750 mm it is 63x, at 1200 mm it is 100x.
