  Accessorize your Telescope for Optimum Viewing with the Dialectric Mirror Star Diagonal by Celestron

  Revamped Optics

  This star diagonal reflects the telescope's light path of 90 degrees to provide a more comfortable viewing angle.

  In addition, the glass has 58 layers of dielectric coatings, which provide an over 99% reflective surface, delivering the maximum amount of light to the eyepiece.

  Specialized Design

  The Twist-Lock eyepiece holder secures any 1.25-inch eyepieces while keeping them centered in the diagonal, thus providing the best optomechanical alignment between the telescope and eyepiece.

  Unlike traditional thumb screws, the twist-lock cannot scratch or engrave the barrel of your eyepieces. The twist-lock has an integrated 1.25-inch barrel stop that prevents 1.25-inch accessories with long barrels from damaging the mirror.

  Detailed Mechanics

  All the diagonal's mechanical parts are made of machined black anodized aluminum, except the twist-lock rings, which are orange anodized for visibility. The interior of the barrel is glare threaded and painted flat black to prevent glare. With all its features and these high-end finishes, the Celestron Dielectric Star Diagonal, 1.25-inch with Twist-Lock is one of the highest quality 1.25-inch star diagonals that Celestron has ever offered.

  Standard Star Diagonals vs Dielectric Star Diagonal

  The key specifications for a star diagonal are its reflectivity and its optical quality. This diagonal delivers top performance in both categories, with an over 99% reflective mirror and diffraction-limited optical quality. This ensures that virtually all the light collected by the telescope will reach the eyepiece without the diagonal affecting optical performance. Using a lower quality star diagonal can both dim the view and degrade optical quality. You can enjoy better views from your telescope by simply swapping out its diagonal for a premium one, like the Celestron Dielectric Star Diagonal.
