Having taken more interest in Plossls again, this secondhand discontinued Meade 3000 Series 25mm came today.  They seem to have been well thought of, and this came at a very good price compared with its very distant relative.  Looking forward to seeing how it performs!

As they say the proof on the pudding is in the eating. 🍰 😀

In this case ,it will be in the seeing 🔭

Will be interesting on your opinion, but those premium black and green (TV) really do hold up to the competition

If it's one of the Japanese made ones, they are very decent plossls. Better than the 4000 series IMHO.

The Japan made Meade 3000 series plossls are very good Doug. I use a 16mm pair for binoviewing.

Hi Doug, the Radians are quite good, I have the 6mm and the 8mm, mainly for planetary.

+1 for the Meade 3000s. I wish I still had mine from 16mm up (I found the shorter ones very good but tight on eye relief like most plossls). 

For me, the 16mm was the pick of the range, closely followed by the 25mm. I think they stand up well vs the TV plossls especially considering their age.

Enjoy yours!👍☺
