100* MEADE 21 MWA and 14 XWA.....
deepspacehunter replied to deepspacehunter's topic in Discussions - Eyepieces
M13 when seen through the 14mm XWA (barlowed 214X) is a STUNNING VIEW, I have never heard of the compliments , like I have heard when showing others the Great M13 with this EP... and M82 with the 14mm XWA (107X) is as good as I have ever seen it, in fact almost everything viewed through the 14mm XWA is Very Nice... and the 21mm MWA is a fine EP for looking through the CYGNUS Milky Way, and larger Star clusters.... I do keep the 14mm XWA in my Telescope most of the time.... Mark -
After enjoying the MEADE 14mm XWA for the last 3 months, I decided to order the MEADE 21mm MWA.... I realized that through the 14mm I am seeing more COLOR stars than in any other EP that I have ever owned...Tonight is CLEAR and GOOD SEEING... I will be observing in a short while.... FIRST light for the 21mm... I do not know why MEADE 100* EPs have green bands and some have blue bands... and if they are all marketed as 100* EPs , why are some XWA Extremely Wide Angle and some MWA Mega Wide Angle...I know that these MEADE's have not been getting too much respect... but I don't know why...I have been really enjoying the VIEWS through the 14mm, and I am anxious to see what the 21mm will do.... REPORT COMING SOON Clear Skies Mark
