I've been looking for another larger field EP to use on my new 12.5" f5 dob (without paracorr).
I was leaning towards a 32mm TV plossl to add to the tv plossls I already own.
But then I saw that you can get a meade 5000 32mm, new, for about $115 shipped... in a two inch barrel w/ 60 degree apparent field. that's a hell of a field increase.
So can anyone really comment on them? I've read that online pdf review and it doesn't say much (not tested on an f5 reflector, plus it comments on 'value' instead of absolutes)
Hell, if the center 50 degrees is as good as a tv plossl, I'd love to pick up a 'free' 15 degrees extra!
