Meade Series 5000 8.8mm UWA (82*)

Outstanding widefield eyepiece that gives an amazingly immersive view of nebula & clusters alike. Excellent planetary EP particularly for those using a 'handraulic mount' that would appreciate a few more moments of view before giving it a nudge.

I have used this series of EPs in f5 Newts, f6 Refractors, f10 SCT & f15 Mak with outstanding performance in all those scopes..

I used to have a fair set of these but, have been replacing them with the ES version (it's the same EP) as I prefer the traditional Eyecup to the rotate up style. That is seriously the only reason I am moving these on.. I've now acquired an 8.8mm ES version so, no need to retain this...

Comes with endcaps & pristine original box.. EP is in excellent condition

Yours for $170 posted anywhere in Australia

Cheers
