Product Description

From the Manufacturer

The world standard in telescope oculars, Meade Series 4000 eyepieces yield the widest possible fields of view, consistent with pinpoint edge-of-field sharpness and long eye relief--and yet with extremely low astigmatism, spherical aberration, and off-axis color. Incorporating 7-layer multi-coatings and edge-blackened optics for optimum image contrast, these sophisticated 4- to 8-element designs permit levels of optical performance generally impossible to achieve with eyepieces of fewer elements.

All Series 4000 eyepieces include a soft rubber eyeguard, custom fitted to each eyepiece with a bayonet mount. The eyeguards fold down for eyeglass wearers, and in fact the folded eyeguard shields eyeglasses from coming into contact with the metal eyepiece housings. Rubber grips are provided.

Super Plossls
Designed to utilize the very latest in optical glass types, Meade 4-element Super Plossls are excellent general-purpose eyepieces. For observing hairline lunar and planetary detail, splitting close double stars, or for resolving faint nebulosity in deep-space, Meade Super Plossls optimize the performance of any telescope type, whether f10 Schmidt-Cassegrain, f16 refractor, or f4 reflector.

What's in the Box:
Eyepiece, soft rubber eyeguard custom fitted with a bayonet mount.

Product Description

Designed and manufactured to exacting standards, Meade Series 4000 Super Plössl eyepieces deliver wide 52° apparent fields of view (44° for the SP40mm) with all of the resolution, edge-of- field sharpness and color correction demanded in the most advanced visual applications. All eyepieces are multi-coated and include soft rubber eyeguards.

4.0 out of 5 stars A great general purpose medium-high power eyepiece, September 8, 2004
By 
This review is from: Meade 07173-02 15mm Super Plossl Series 4000 Lense (Electronics)
The Meade Series 4000 Super Plössls are an improvment over the 3000 series Plössls. The 15mm is used for medium-high power observing on most telescopes. This eyepiece offers a magnification of 83x on an ETX90 or 133x on a 2000mm focal length telescope like the LX90.
