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.
See how a Premium shield works with matching masks and a cap. Read the telescope accessory guide, compare dew shields, or browse matched accessory kits. Choose the same telescope model for every matching part.
Where matching components are offered for your selected telescope model, the masks and dust cap can be used directly on the telescope or with the matching StargazeWorks dew shield. Check each product’s model options before combining parts.
