As a seasoned astronomer, you want equipment that provides the best views of the night sky. Only you can
decide which of Meade’s premium optics to add to your collection.
Meade’s f/8 and f/10 optical tubes are the ideal solution. Both are equipped with Meade’s Advanced Coma-Free
(ACF) Optics and proprietary Ultra-High Transmission Coatings (UHTC) giving a razor sharp, coma-free field and
brighter images. High contrast baffling and oversized primary mirrors produce darker backgrounds and improved
off-axis illumination. These OTAs are the perfect choice for both observing and imaging.
