Multi-coated, parfocal, 4-element eyepieces of the classical Pl?sl design.

Perfectly suited to any telescope or observing application.

Meade Series 3000 Pl?sls are multi-coated for maximum light transmission and image contrast. Chrome-plated brass barrels are threaded for standard filters. Upper eyepiece sections are of gleaming black-anodized aluminum. All focal lengths include rubber eyecups.

• 5mm and 6.7mm oculars for high-power observations of the Moon and planets

• 9.5mm, an excellent moderately-high magnification eyepiece, is useful for more extended objects, such as globular clusters, that require magnification to be well-resolved

• 16mm yields, for example, a power of 125X and actual field of 0.40? in an 8" f/10 Schmidt-Cassegrain?an ideal combination for observing structural detail in the Orion Nebula (M42), the Andromeda Galaxy (M31), and other large objects.

• For general-purpose observing of the total range of astronomical objects, the 25mm provides low-power images high in contrast and sharp to the field edge.

• All Series 3000 Pl?sls also function well when used with a quality Barlow lens.

• Manufactured to exclusive Meade optical designs by a leading lensmaker, Series 3000 Pl?sl eyepieces produce excellent results on telescopes of all types, from Schmidt-Cassegrains to reflectors and refractors

Complementary to the Series 3000 Pl?sls above, the Pl?sl 40mm yields spectacular, low-power, wide-field results with any telescope. Manufactured to the classical Pl?sl 4-element design, the PL40mm produces, for example, a power of 50X and actual field of 0.88?, almost two Moon-diameters, with an 8" f/10 Schmidt-Cassegrain. The chrome-plated brass barrel is threaded for filters.
