Best For zooming: Celestron versatile Eyepiece

Buy on Amazon

The nice part about this zoom lens is the long eye relief distance, meaning you can wear glasses or contact lenses, or, without glasses you do not need to jam the eyepiece against your eyeball. It has no threads above the lens and its just rubber. It has a large opening to view through. It replaces several different other lenses, and is definitely convenient to use because all you have to do is adjust it to have another lens instead of changing the lens.

The convenience of doing quick zoom's to find and center on objects then hone in is really nice and for most planetary viewing this presents a pretty decent view. Its not perfect and there is a lot of chromatic aberration when using it zoomed way in at the 8-12mm level but when you are zoomed way out at 24mm, WOW, the view is astounding.
