Customer reviews

Useful tool for the astrophotographer

I purchased this eyepiece as an aid to centering the scope for my Skyris camera, for astrophotography. I have used a number of different illuminated crosshair eyepieces and they all suffer from the same issue in that the light source is too strong, even when turned down to the minimum setting, thus blocking out the target object. However, this is easily overcome by placing a piece of paper between the light source and lens, which takes about one minute to do and overcomes this problem. I chose the Meade because the build quality is better than all but the most expensive models and it all has a rubber hood, providing eye relief, and most of the competitors do not. Im very happy with this product and would not want to be without it!
