4A great general purpose high power eyepiece  Sep 08, 2004 By Taras R. Hnatyshyn
The Meade Series 4000 Super Plössls are an improvment over the 3000 series Plössls. The 9.7mm is used for high power observing on most telescopes. This eyepiece offers a magnification of 129x on an ETX90 or 206x on a 2000mm focal length telescope like the LX90. At high magnifications one requires a steady atmosphere, or else the image appears blurry due to bad "seeing". But with steady skies, this eyepiece produces stunning views of the planets.

4Quality high power plossl  Apr 02, 2006 By Brigmonk
This Meade eyepice is of excellent build quality. It offers very good resolution of the planets, moon, starclusters, planetary nebulae, and double stars.

5Supersharp and superbright  Apr 08, 2011 By KM
I buy too many products from Amazon and have little time to review most of them, but I am pretty excited about this eyepiece.
It is the sharpest and brightest optical piece I ever owned, and I get great view with wide field that makes it easy to observe anything. Obviously the magnification is not great but I think this makes it brighter, and generally it is just a joy to have this eyepiece.


5Meade 26mm Is Out Of This World  Apr 04, 2012 By Rockstar
Great ocular at a great price with fast delivery. I used this eyepiece about a week ago and was not disappointed. The Orion Nebula looked fantastic with its milky nebulosity and trapezium definition. The field of view was huge and the Meade 26mm eyepiece super delivered.

4Gorgeous views of the stars  Jan 16, 2011 By Dominic Acia
I bought this eyepeice hoping for some better magnification than my current eyepeice. I did my math wrong and this did just the opposite. So initially I was a little upset. However, once I realized just how useful this eyepiece was it is now one of my favorites.
I have an Orion XT-8. This eyepiece cannot be inserted completely into the focuser as it will not focus if you do. Luckily the adapter sleeve is very long on this eyepiece and you can pull it out about 1/2" before tightening the set screw. With it pulled out about 1/2" you can get great focus and an AMAZINGLY clear and wide field of view. This eyepeice is great for observing constellations and galaxies.

The view is breathtaking.
