I am personally very skeptical of the high test number. That is not to say that it isn't valid. However, in any multiple element design there are so many variables that have to be perfect to achieve

What do I think? 1). A C14 goes for 4K. This one is 6K plus shipping from Germany. 2). Since other C14s come not with zygos, we have no basis of comparison as to how much better this one is testing

Rigel, The fastar equiped OTA has a locking ring around the secondary housing. When removed the secondary can be slid out. There have been some recent posts on flocking and I am tempted to try it. Of

Wayne, Great EP review with a lot of insight. About 8 years ago I suffered a serious corneal laceration to my right (dominant) eye. Since then I don't think my vision has ever been the same. I have

I have used the 14mm UWA. It is a good eyepiece, but it is also a clone, to my understanding. All of the UWAs were copies of the (series 1) Naglers, I am told. You will note that Meade has not

Has anybody used the ultra wide angle meade series 4000 14mm with the CM 1400 telescope. is this eyepiece is better than a nagler eyepiece. Which eyepiece you all recommend ! thank you

I have both the 14mm UWA Meade and the 12mm Nagler T4. I personally like the 14 mm Meade better. To me the FOV is flatter where the 12 Nagler seems to fishbowl a little bit to my eye. I have not tried

I cannot disagree with anything said about the 700. I primarily use an HGM-200 mount, but bought a CI-700 last year because I couldn't pass it up for $885! I purchased it as a light duty mount for

Hi, I've only just joined this group as we've aquired an old C14 so apologies if this reply is out of date! Try http://www.fpi-protostar.com/flocked.htm for flocking paper that is definitely "black"!

Hi all, We have been very fortunate in receiving an old Celestron 14 for use in our educational activities. We could do with some advice though...... 1. The corrector has many tiny "cleaning"

Getting objects on the chip was really easy since I was using Tpoint. I did M51 at f3.5 then slewed to M13 and M57. Put them right in the center of the chip! Switched to f11 for M57 and just had to
