Hi all,

Over the weekend I had a chance of looking through a GS 68 degee eyepeice vs a Meade Wide view, both projected crisp clear views ( Although I was looking at the sign across the street on a spotting scope) and for the same FL they looked exactly indentical. perhaps with the more experience eye maybe you guys can spot the diffrence. But I will have to say its a very minute difference.

The meade eyepieces for its price seem to project about the same image as the GS ones. For almost 3x less the price, i would go for the GS wide view eyepieces anyday! (thats if I was heading down that path....)

I am begining to think that I should follow - the all or none law!

Either get the cheap stuff (which is GS eyepeices whoes quality seems comparable to eyepieces at 3 to 4 times its price ).... or go for the top of range like a televue.....

I haven't had a chance to look through and compare so I can't make any comments..... but I hear Televues are suppose to be the best of the eyepieces.... also the best bank busting one.... at 500 quid a pop!
