Meade 9.7mm Series 4000 Super Plossl Eyepiece

Meade® Series 4000™ Eyepieces... The finest in premium telescope eyepieces. 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 multicoated 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.

ncludes: Series 4000 SP 6.4mm, 9.7mm, 12.4mm, 15mm, 32mm, and 40mm eyepieces, #126 2x Barlow Lens, Series 4000 Color Filter Set # 1 (#12 Yellow, #23 Light Red, #58 Green, #80A Blue), Series 4000 ND96 Moon Filter, and Aluminum Carrying Case.

Super Plössls: Designed to utilize the very latest in optical glass types, Meade 4 -element Super Plössls 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 Plössls optimize the performance of any telescope type, whether f/10 Schmidt-Cassegrain, f/16 refractor, or f/4 reflector. They also operate well in conjunction with the air-spaced design of the Meade #140 2x Apochromatic Barlow. All focal lengths through 32mm are parfocal. The Super Plössl 56mm eyepiece with 2" O.D. barrel yields 36X and an actual field of view of 1.4° on an 8" f/10 Schmidt-Cassegrain telescope.
