AstroSolar film - easy to use
The solar film works great for my 90mm Refractor. Seeing the sun and the sunspot detail expands my astronomical viewing capabilities without breaking the budget. It is a great way to get into solar viewing. Making the filter using the film was easy a...

Very nice EP for the price. A bit heavy but then again it is a 2" 38mm eyepiece.

Bye bye set screws
Use to bring upgraded focuser up to correct focal length. The new lock ring device is a joy to use.

The ultimate Telrad upgrade
Easy to install and use. Infinite adjustment ability of the telrad reticle. Slow to fast pulsation or constant on AND barely visible up to brilliant brightness capabilities. Kudos to the genius of this Telrad innovation.

Fast Shipping and Worked Great
Received two days after order, just in time to use viewing the Transit of Venus. Used on bincoculars, and had great results.

Great Filter
Bought this filter for use during the Venus transit. Views were excellent, nice sunspot details visible, and the use of a yellow filter gave the sun a nice color for showing the transit to neighbors. Excellent product, especially for the price!

Great Finder Filter
Worked great with a 50mm Nighthawk finder using the optional longer screws. Good views on it's own, allowed dual transit observations along with the scope it was mounted on.

Very High-Quality Diagonal
I purchased this William Optics diagonal after buying my 2nd WO refractor, so that the 2 would not have to share. This one, with its carbon fiber sides was matched with my Megrez 120, and it replaced another brand quartz diagonal. The two diagonals c...

Great Product, fine quality
Great for viewing / imaging the Sun in white light. The Baader Solar Film gives a nice, cool (color temp) image of the Sun with great sunspot detail. I like these better than the glass ones.

My favorite illuminated reticle finder
The QuickFinder offers the best combination of price and functionality in a light-weight, compact design. I've used a Telrad, as well as other red dot/illuminated reticle finders: the QF is the one I prefer on my scopes. The small footprint makes i...

Great even with telephoto
In my first day trying this product I've got perfectly tracked stars for a couple of minutes with a 150mm telephoto at 12 MPx seen at 100%. It looks that with a little more practise those results can be easily improved with longer exposures or longe...

Baader Solar Filter Film
Never used a film filter before, and was skeptical of quality. I am more than impressed with the high resolution I get visually and in photos using this filter. Comes with excellent instructions and precautions on handling and building your own custo...

Great Price; Solid Construction!
I bought the 160mm filter, prior to June's Venus transit, for use on my 4.5" reflector and it fits great. The 150mm filter might have fit a little bit better, but since it was sold-out at the time, I bought the 160mm and got some additional 1.75" lon...

Good Product, timely delivery
I used the Agena Baader Solar Filter to observe the transit of Venus. The filter was well-made, thoughtfully packaged, and fit securely on the telescope. I placed the order less than a week before the transit, and it arrived in time! I am very happ...

Inexpensive AND Excellent Performance
I cannot think of another way to get the same quality in a solar filter for anything close to the price. It comes with instructions for making your own cell, which is not difficult, and getting it in a sheet allows you to customize it to your own sco...

Great value in 2" eyepieces
This is a good quality, lightweight 2" eyepiece, with a nice wide field. I used it on F9 and F10 refractors, and the edge of field star images were excellent. ... probably "not so much" for an F4 newtonian, but great for SCT's and medium to long f...

Fantastic budget wide angle lens
This was my first lens I bought after my initial scope purchase, and all the good things I had heard about GSO lens were confirmed. Fantastic eye relief and field of view. Busy saving for the barlow now.

Baader Solar Filter 110mm - Visual
I bought this filter for use on my Orion 90mm Mak-Cas and it fits perfectly. The 70mm of filter aperture is more than sufficient for my 90mm mirror, and as a result, sunspot images are bright and crisp. The filter is very light, so it adds hardly any...
