Meade 102ED (lens question)Posted By Ed Drown |
Hello,
I've a chance to pick up an older Meade 102ED scope and was wondering about the dispersion characteristics of the lens elements. An old catalog I dug up from 03' states one element as KF3, and the ED element as FK01. Does any know how this type of glass would stack up to the newer designs, such as FPL51 or FPL53.
Also, anyone know the weight of just the OTA.
Any advice welcome, thank you.
