Astrozap For Celestron 5" NexStar 5SE, Flexible Black Plastic, with Notch

AstroZap Flexible Dew Shield for Celestron NexStar 5SE – With Notch

The Celestron NexStar 5SE is the ultimate grab-and-go scope—but that compact design doesn’t protect its corrector plate from dew or stray light. The AstroZap Flexible Dew Shield gives your 5SE a critical edge in both protection and performance, helping you get the most from every observing session.

Tailored specifically for the NexStar 5SE, this dew shield is made from durable yet flexible black ABS plastic and attaches securely with a Velcro strip. The interior is lined with black felt, which helps suppress ambient light and slows down the cooling that causes dew to form on your optics.

This version includes a precision-cut notch to clear the 5SE’s integrated dovetail mounting rail, ensuring a flush fit without forcing, shifting, or blocking other accessories.

Features:

• Designed for the Celestron NexStar 5SE 5" Schmidt-Cassegrain

• Flexible, lightweight black ABS plastic body

• Velvet-lined interior improves contrast and dew resistance

• Single dovetail notch for a seamless fit around the rail

• Installs quickly with Velcro fastening—no tools required

• Folds flat for easy storage in your gear bag or case

Observing Tip:

The NexStar 5SE's portability makes it ideal for quick backyard sessions—but don’t let dew cut things short. A lightweight dew shield like this one lets you observe longer while also boosting contrast by keeping out intrusive ambient light. It’s one of the most effective upgrades you can make for this little SCT.
