Stray light control. Focus. Protection.

4 pieces. One system.

Includes the dew shield for stray light control, tri-Bahtinov mask, isolation mask and dust cap. Spike masks are sold separately.

01

Dew shield for stray light control

Internal rings, called baffles, help redirect light arriving at an angle away from the optics. Their shape is informed by ray tracing. The shield also helps delay dew on exposed front optics.

02

Tri-Bahtinov mask

Creates three diffraction patterns to help you judge focus and optical alignment on a bright star.

03

Isolation mask

Used with the tri-Bahtinov mask to cover two sectors and examine one pattern at a time.

04

Dust cap

Covers the telescope or matching shield between sessions to help keep dust off the front optics.

Build your setup

See how the matched Premium system works from setup to storage. Read the telescope accessory guide, compare dew shields, or browse matched accessory kits. Choose the same telescope model for every matching part.

Designed to work together

One system. Control light, focus and protect.

The masks and dust cap fit both your telescope directly and the matching StargazeWorks dew shield. Choose pieces for the same telescope model and use the setup that suits your session.

01

Set up your way

Fit the shield when you need it. The focusing masks also fit directly on your telescope.

02

Check your setup

Use the tri-Bahtinov mask, then add the isolation mask to examine one pattern at a time. Follow your telescope's instructions for collimation adjustments.

03

Observe, then cover

Remove the focusing masks before observing or imaging. Fit the cap to the telescope or shield when you finish.

Ask us about your telescope

How does the shield control stray light?

The rings inside a baffled dew shield intercept light coming in at an angle. Ray tracing helped us choose ring angles that direct reflections away from the optics and into the spaces between the rings.

Do I need the shield to use the masks and cap?

No. The masks and dust cap fit directly on your telescope and on the matching StargazeWorks dew shield. Choose all parts for the same telescope model. The isolation mask works with the tri-Bahtinov mask in either setup.

How do the four pieces work together?

Use the shield when you want it, and fit the tri-Bahtinov directly on the telescope or in the shield to check your setup. Add the isolation mask to examine one pattern. Remove the focusing masks before observing or imaging; use the cap on the telescope or shield when you finish.

Which telescope model should I choose?

Choose the full telescope model name, then your color. Similar apertures can have different fittings. Sky-Watcher Explorer 150P / 150PDS and Quattro 150P use different parts; select the one you own. Contact us if your model is unclear or not listed.

What if the fit is not right?

If a part does not fit the telescope model on your order, contact us within 30 days of delivery. Confirmed fit or manufacturing issues receive a replacement at no charge. The guarantee does not cover selecting the wrong telescope model.

When will it arrive?
