About Meade Polaris 130mm
FEATURED REVIEWS
It's a very nice package
Purchased for my grandson. Took it out last nite on back wooden deck for a spin. It was perfectly colimated (spelling?) with being an f/ 5.0 it was a very nice wide field. I checked using my very old orthoscopic eyepieces against the Meade cheapie Possl's and the field was amazing. Flat and larger than my old eyepieces. Vibration on deck was very minimal. It's a very nice package.
Nice telescope
Arrived quickly and assembly was fairly easy. Now it’s time to start using.
The Meade Polaris 130mm (5.1") 650mm f/5.0 German Equatorial Reflector Telescope is a beginner telescope with a 130mm aperture, reasonable size for first time observers.
