The Astrozap AZ-116 Flexi-Shield® is a flexible dew shield designed to fit Celestron 6" Schmidt-Cassegrain telescopes, with a notch to accommodate the side-mounted dovetail bar. It's an essential accessory for any SCT owner looking to extend observing sessions and protect image contrast.
Why you need a dew shield
Dew forms quickly on exposed corrector plates during cool Australian nights, cutting a session short. A dew shield slows dew formation by shielding the corrector from the cold night sky, while also blocking stray light from streetlamps and the Moon for noticeably sharper, higher-contrast views.
