Top view of the Meade Research Grade 7mm Orthoscopic eyepiece. It is interesting to note some of the Meade Research Orthoscopics had the words "MEADE" or "Meade" being capitalized, and not capitalized. This example is capitalized. I believe the older set is capitalized, while newer versions are not. (However, I'm still waiting to verify this.) Image by M. Forster
Meade Research Grade Orthoscope eyepiece acclaimed by a strong following to be among the finest Orthoscopic eyepieces you can buy. Now of course they are discontinued. The eyepiece is a bit lighter in weight than most orthoscopics of the same size. This is due partly because the barrel is alumium and not made of brass. It is stamped "Japan". Image by M. Forster
