Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Celestron 93230 8 to 24mm 1.25 Zoom Eyepiece
Customer Review: Great value, slight annoyance
Summary: 4 Stars
The zoom feature of this eyepiece is awesome. The eye piece will spin instead of zooming sometimes so be sure you tighten the set screw in the focuser nice and tight.
For the low price of this eyepeice the performance is better than I expected. The image is clear and the range is great. Wish they had this in a 2".
Customer Review: Good eyepiece
Summary: 4 Stars
Tried it on my first telescope - Celestron 80ED Spotter. Good and convenient. No need to change multiple eye pieces. Good buy.Customer Review: Not bad for the price but......
Summary: 3 Stars
I purchased this for my Nexstar 6se based on the price and Celestron name. For general viewing this is a good zoom eye piece for the price. I used it to zoom into the moon and Saturn and both worked fairly well. One thing I noticed with this unit is that when you zoom you had to adjust your alignment on the object you were viewing and sometimes I had to refocus. I didn't mind those as the adjustment was not very much. The one thing I didn't like was the zoom control. I found it annoying at times to do the actual zoom with the way the zoom is setup. The zoom wasn't smooth and I often had to grab the eye piece with two hands with one hand to hold the eye piece and the other to turn the zoom. For me that was annoying so in the end I returned the eye piece and plan to instead look for a more refined piece rather then going for the cheaper Celestron.
