## Overview

The Celestron 93421 X-Cel LX 5mm eyepiece features a 60° apparent field of view optimized for planetary and deep-sky observation. Its six-element fully multi-coated lens system ensures crisp, high-contrast images, while pop-up rubber eyeguards and a threaded rubber grip provide comfort and secure handling.

## Description

Celestron X-Cel LX series eyepieces offer a 60º apparent field of view, perfect for the Moon, the planets, and a plethora of deep-sky objects. The premium six-element optical set is finished with multiple layers of high-transmission coatings for clear, sharp images. The edges of the optics are blackened for increased contrast. All seven X-Cel LX eyepieces sport 16 mm of comfortable eye relief, and are parfocal, which means you can switch out eyepieces within the series during observing sessions and little or no additional focusing will be required. The X-Cel LX eyepiece body is made of black-anodized aluminium. The pop-up eyecups make it easy to adjust the height for different users. Turn them in one direction to extend the length, and the other direction to provide a flat surface, preferable to most eyeglass wearers. A treaded rubber grip around the center of the eyepiece barrel offers secure handling, even in moist conditions or with heavy gloves on. The 1.25” insert barrel is threaded to accept filters.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: I've a C90 celestron spotting scope, 1250 mm of optical focus. I use it for astronomical view as well. Will this eyepiece work with it..??**
A: a 2.3 give you over 500 power,a c90 can handle a max with good viewing about 180 power,take 1250 divide by mm of lens,how about a max of 6mm

**Q: Will the 2.3mm eye piece fit the astro master 130eq? Thx!**
A: Basically no.  It will "fit," but it will not be usable because it will be too much magnification.  Magnification is your focal length of the scope (650mm) divided by focal length of eyepiece, so 650/2.3= 282 power.  About 175 power would be max for that scope, but a 5mm at 130 power would probably be plenty.  You'd likely get more use out of a 9mm for 72X

**Q: How does this compare with the Celestron Luminos for planetary viewing?**
A: X-Cel LX have less light scatter and are better suited for planetary viewing. Luminos have better light transmission and wider field of view and as a result are better EPs for DSOs

**Q: re x-cel 25mm I have celesstron first scope 80 eq  900mm focal  is this good for moon view Would I see whole moon or the craters well etc.? 80mm f/11**
A: This eyepiece would provide 36 power through your scope, so you would be looking at the whole moon.  To determine what power an eyepiece would provide divide the focal length of the telescope by the focal length of the eyepiece (900/25 = 36 magnification).  I basically see the entire moon in my eyepieces up to about 90 to 100 power.  Too see craters in more detail you need to have around 150 magnification or more so to accomplish this with your scope you need to have a 6mm eyepiece (900/6=150).  Also your scope's theoretical maximum effective magnification is about 160 power, to determine the theoretical maximum of a telescope you take the aperture of your scope in inches 80mm is 3.15inches and multiply that by 50, therefore 3.15inches X 50 = 157.5 max power.   The moon however is a big bright easy user friendly target so you might be able to get away with 200 power for looking at the moon but not anything else really, unless you get a scope with more aperture.   So if you want to have a go at studying the craters a bit closer, to do that in your scope you could get a 9mm eyepiece that would give you 100 power and then use a 2X barlow lens that would double your magnification, but you may have a slightly cleaner image at 150 magnification.  However, some say the multiplier for theoritical maximum magnification is 60 not 50 per inch of aperture which would put your telescopes max power at 189 instead of 157.5.  Anyways I wouldn't try to anything beyond than 200 power through your scope.  Hope this helps.

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Pleased with this eyepeice.
*by P***R on 13 January 2016*

I purchased the 25mm through Amazon. Easy to use, not too fussy about eye position, good sharpness across field of view. I have never used really high end eyepieces so cannot compare to those but this is a step up from basic eyepieces and offers better field of view than plossls.I am using the X-Cel LXs in a C11 with a focal reducer attached i.e. 1800mm focal length and f6.3.I also have the 18mm, 12mm and 9mm versions of this eyepiece. The only issue I have is that the rubber ring at the top of the 12mm came off - this is a known issue with these eyepieces, caused in part by the cap being pretty tight. Was easily solved by gluing the rubber ring back on with superglue. The 25mm has had most use and the rubber ring has been fine on that. The lenses are advertised as parfocal i.e. requiring little or no refocusing when you swap from one focal length to another. I guess "little" is subjective but my set definitely require refocusing when swapped and more than just a little in my opinion.Despite these minor issues I am extremely happy with these lenses and the 25mm in particular.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The clarity and Crystal Clear review
*by G***  on 6 May 2022*

So impressed I also have Pentax 3.5 eyepieces I can't get over how much zoom they actually have just as the sun was going down could pick out a person pitching a tent to do a spot of night fishing about 2 1/2 miles away Massey well worth the money and well done celestron really recommend these 7 mm eyepieces you will not be disappointed

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good quality
