UO HD Ortho or Radian vs. Meade Super Plossl

Posted By Preston Pendergraft
If your looking for a great deal on Plossls and the such, don't forget that TeleVue makes them too. I compared a 15mm w/2X barlow (Televue barlow) to an UO 7mm ortho on Mars last weekend and I couldn't tell the difference between the two for brightenss and contrast.

Personally I think the TV plossls are hard to beat, plus they are the best investment eyepieces if you buy them and decide to sell them later (IMO). You can get 75-85% of your money back, can't say that about Meade stuff I don't think.
