Customer Ratings & Reviews

I ordered 2 Celestron EclipSmart 3-Piece Solar Eclipse Observing and Imaging Kita a week before the full solar eclipse on 4/8/24. Both my wife and I thought the glasses were solid, fit well, and allowed us to watch the event confidently and safely. The filter for covering my phone camera protected my camera and allowed me to take a number of photos as the moon slid in front of the sun and then moved on its way. We'll hold on to these items to use again when partial eclipses occur. We won't be here to view the wonder of the next full eclipse in our area.

Did its purpose! Even brought a filter sheet for a camera!

This eclipse-watching kit included special sunglasses that protected my eyes during the eclipse and a filter that protected my digital camera while I photographed the eclipse. Both products worked perfectly. I saw the eclipse but did not damage my eyes, and I photographed the eclipse without damaging my camera.

Unfortunately, it was too cloudy to view the eclipse in our area, but did get a chance to test these products out prior to the eclipse. Both products worked well at viewing the sun safely. I loved the durability of the glass frames. They are so much better than the cardboard ones. Also, the book was a nice addition.

Bought for the October ‘24 solar eclipse, and these glasses were incredible! So simple but such a great view of the eclipse without hurting our eyes. The handheld filter came in handy for getting pictures on our phone and DSLR camera too. We’ll use these for every eclipse!

I used these to look ate the annular solar eclipse and they worked because I am not blind. also used teh camera filter on my s23 ultra and got some good pics and video.

This item comes as a 3pk set. Tinted Level 10 Certified Shades, a Cell Phone/DSLR Camrea Paper Certified Lens, and an almost 20 page book on the Eclipse and its phases

This was worth it. The eclipse glasses and the filter helped me to view the eclipse wonderfully and also help me take some beautiful pictures of the eclipse.

The Celestron - EclipsSmart 3-Piece Solar Eclipse Observing and Imaging Kit worked exactly as it should have! I would buy it again if needed. The glasses are well made and fit comfortably.

The glasses were very stylish and the camera lens cover was an absolute wonder. It worked fantastic!!

These glass worked perfectly. Much better than the cheap old thin plastic/paper ones. I plan on saving these for 2024! The paper filter did work for a couple of photos with my nikon camera on a tripod. Nothing fancy, but it is fun to have at least one good picture that I took myself.

The glasses certainly were better quality than the cheap ones from the store. The filter for the camera I ended up carefully cutting to a size that fit between my camera lens and UV filter which allowed both hands to be used in adjusting camera and tripod. Booklet was helpful for knowing when peak eclipse would occur.

It was perfect for the eclipse! I wore the glasses and used the camera filter and took a pretty good photo of the partial eclipse!

In general, the plastic eclipse glasses and filter worked well. The lenses of the glasses were clear and it was easy to wear them over my regular glasses. It was nice not to need to hold them in place. The filter was very useful for taking pictures but was a bit awkward to use. It had to be held against the camera lens. That was easier to accomplish with one hand with the cell phone camera. My initial 2 pictures were good, but as the eclipse progressed, I could not get a good focus on the sun. Using the filter with a camera was difficult. It was hard to figure out where to aim the camera without looking at the sun unprotected. I had to have a second person hold the filter. It worked well near the end of the eclipse when we could Zoom the lens and still have the sun in the frame.

I bought this set so that I could watch the Total Eclipse of 2024. The glasses are great and better quality than the more common "3D style" flimsy glasses. And the Solar Filter for cameras worked pretty good to take pictures with my iphone. Since the glasses are made to last, I have put them away and occassionally use them to take a look at the sun safely.

Saw this as I was in Best Buy buying a computer. The next solar eclipse is in April 2024 and covers a large swath of Indiana which is right next door. This kit includes sunglasses so you can look at the sun while the eclipse is happening. Having seen the last solar eclipse this is something you would want to have to experience all parts of the solar eclipse.

Bought two pairs to see the total eclipse while in Mazatlan Mexico. These were perfect. Comfortable to wear and offered total eye protection while we watched total of 3 hours as moon began and completed and ended path in front of the sun. Will use these again for our next eclipse chase. Sure beats those flimsy cardboard ones

Saw the eclipse perfectly was outside of work and we took our break to go see it. Some of the other people had the paper glasses and they complain about feeling around their ears, but since they felt just regular sunglasses, they were fine. 

The sunglasses in kit were durable and comfortable. The lens filter for camera worked though a bit awkward to hold against my cell phone lenses and snap photos. The eclipse guide was awesome--lots of interesting information!! Overall very good product for the price.

This is a very well executed solar protection solution. We were able to not view the eclipse perfectly, but in complete comfort. The additional filter for the camera provided us excellent video and imagery of the solar eclipse. Highly recommend purchasing the binoculars as well
