Meade UWA 14 or NAGLER 16 T5 ?

Posted By Ivan Gastaldo

I personally own the 14mm UWA, and it is my favorite eyepiece. It is BIG though, so take that into consideration, as it is larger & heavier than the Nagler's Type 5. (I find it just right for magnification & contrast on my 10" SCT)

If your mount/scope can handle the difference in size/weight, I would probably go for the 14mm UWA. But if you feel a smaller/lighter eyepiece would work better with your setup, then the Naglers are hard to beat.


Good luck, and clear skies! wink
