Directs light 90 from telescope Provides a more comfortable viewing position Fully coated, high quality glass for maximum brightness Image will appear upright, yet mirror is reversed
Meade #928 45 degree Image Erecting Diagonal Prism (1 25") For refractors only
$ 39.99
Meade #928 45 degree Image Erecting Diagonal Prism (1 25") For refractors only
Meade Model 928 Image Erecting Prism for Meade refracting telescopes #07217. 1.25" barrel. Produces a correctly oriented image and convenient 45° observing angle for terrestrial observations.
Meade refracting telescope models (like all refractors) normally produce an image that is reversed or "inverted" due to the inherent nature of the lenses used in their optical configuration. This left to right mirror reversal of the image poses no problem for astronomy, however in terrestrial observing a corrected image is highly desirable which is where this useful accessory comes in.
For observing wildlife, a home with a view, or other Earthly applications the Meade 928 Erecting Prism results in an image which is both right side up and corrected left to right. It also provides a comfortable 45° observing angle which is more convenient for daytime use.
For all Meade refractors with 1.25" focusers including 70AZ, DS-2080 and DS-2090, and LXD75 AR5 and AR-6. May also be used with LX90, LX200 or other Schmidt-Cassegrain or Advanced Coma Free models with a 1.25" eyepiece holder. Note: not compatible with ETX models.

Meade 10 Inch LX850 ACF Telescope with StarLock
Meade SKU: 1008-85-01 | Helix SKU: ME10088501
Overview
The New LX850™ with StarLock™. The portable astro-imaging system that can be setup, aligned and imaging in less than thirty minutes. Only from Meade. Building on the foundation of the technologically revolutionary LX800, Meade engineers have taken the next step in astrophotographic evolution. We kept the same innovative concepts like Starlock™ fulltime automatic guiding and high-precision pointing, f/8 ACF OTAs with internal Crayford-style two-speed focuser and a portable precision German equatorial mount, but reengineered it to deliver more performance with less user effort. Here is a brief list of a few of the changes and new features made to create the new LX850: NEW polished bronze worms in both RA and DEC drivers that deliver smooth motion with low periodic error. NEW larger roller bearings in both RA and DEC axes to better handle larger loads. NEW roller bearings in the RA and DEC clutch assemblies to allow freer motion with the clutches loosened for easier balancing. NEW one-piece 1 inch thick saddle plate with improved dove tail clamps, thicker OTA rail and radius blocks to reduce flexure between the OTA and mount. NEW alternative StarLock mounting position on ACF OTAs for virtually no flexure between StarLock and the primary optics. NEW StarLock software improvements to guide star selection, tracking/guiding accuracy, Ultra High Precision Pointing, and Drift Alignment. NEW StarLock automatic guide rate calibration which analyzes the sky conditions and sets the best possible guide rates for both RA and DEC. Fast f/8 Advanced Coma-Free (ACF) optical systems on the 10'', 12'' and 14'' OTAs. These optics produce wider, flatter fields with no coma for pinpoint stars out to the edge of larger imaging sensors or extreme wide angle eyepieces. Internal Crayford-style primary mirror focusing system with a dual speed 7:1 focus control. Precise focus is a snap.

Meade 10" f/10 LX200-ACF w/UHTC (1010-60-03)
- 10" f/10 Advanced Coma Free Optics - 2500mm focal length
- Ultra-High Transmission Coatings (UHTC)
- Standard Field Tripod
- AutoStar II GOTO system
This 10" LX200-ACF has 10” diameter f/10 ACF optics (focal length 2500mm) and Ultra-High Transmission Coatings (UHTC) for maximum image brightness and contrast. Features the advanced LX200 AutoStar II computer system with 145,000 object library, multiple guided tours, High Precision Pointing capability with sub arc-minute pointing accuracy, and Meade SmartDrive with Permanent Periodic Error Correction.
Precise and quick star alignment is done near effortlessly with Meade's level north technology alignment system incorporating a 16 channel GPS receiver. The Autostar II is flash-updatable via free downloads at Meade.com (optional cable required). The drive base of the telescope has multiple input and output ports including an RS-232 PC interface and jacks for a (user supplied) CCD Autoguider and illuminated reticle.
Mechanically loaded as well all LX200 models feature a primary mirror locking mechanism, which effectively prevents movement of the primary mirror during long exposure astrophotography or observing. Turn the lock knob located just above the telescopes main focus knob and the progressive-tension primary lock completely cancels any residual image shift due to mirror movement during visual, photographic, or imaging applications.
All LX200-ACF models feature the DC-servo driven super heavy duty double fork mount, the strongest and most rigid mount in its class. Fast slew speeds are from 1 to 8 degrees per second, and can be user selected at .1 degree per second increments, while fine slewing and photographic guiding speeds can be adjusted from .01x to 1x sidereal in one one-hundredth increments. The mount and all electronics are internally powered by 8 (user supplied) C-cell batteries which will typically operate the telescope for around 20 hours (optional Meade Universal AC adapter also available). The mount additionally has mechanical locks and slow motion manual controls in both axis if for some reason you found yourself without power.
The LX200-ACF comes fully equipped with a heavy duty height adjustable Meade Field Tripod, 1.25" diagonal prism, Series 4000 26mm Plössl eyepiece, 8x50 viewfinder with quick release bracket and Meade AutoStar® Suite Astronomer Edition Software for PC. Scope weight is 65 pounds with 19 pound tripod. Ships in 2 boxes.
