This eyepiece is in great condition, perfectly clean with no scratches or scuffs. The eyepiece's optics provide sharp, clear views across its field, ensuring detailed observations without significant distortion.

Versatile for various astronomical targets, including planets, galaxies, and lunar features, its solid build ensures durability and reliability over time. There are several more compelling reasons why it would be a great addition to your astronomy gear, including:
Wide Apparent Field of View: The Super Wide Angle design provides a generous 82-degree apparent field of view. This wide field allows you to observe large celestial objects, such as star clusters and nebulae, with enhanced immersion and spatial awareness. It also makes locating and tracking objects easier compared to narrower-field eyepieces.
Quality Optics: Meade is known for producing eyepieces with good optical performance. The Series 5000 Super Wide Angle 16mm eyepiece typically offers sharp, clear views across the field of view, allowing you to enjoy detailed observations of celestial objects without significant distortion or aberrations.
Comfortable Viewing Experience: The eyepiece is designed with a comfortable eye relief, which is important for observing comfort, especially if you wear glasses. A longer eye relief reduces eyestrain during extended viewing sessions and ensures you can maintain a relaxed observing posture.
Versatility: The 16mm focal length strikes a balance between magnification and field of view, making it versatile for observing a wide range of celestial objects. It can be used for observing planets, lunar features, galaxies, and more, depending on your telescope's focal length and aperture.
Build Quality: Meade's Series 5000 eyepieces are generally well-regarded for their solid construction and durability. They are built to withstand regular use and are designed to provide reliable performance over time.
Compatibility: The 1.25" barrel size of the eyepiece makes it compatible with a wide range of telescopes that accept standard 1.25" eyepieces. This includes many popular telescope models from different manufacturers, ensuring broad compatibility.
