I ordered the ES 62 14mm and it is just now coming out of quarantine.

I had previously ordered the 5.5 and 9mm which are to me champion eyepieces. Comparing those two with the same magnifications of Meade 5000 series Plossles, the ES eyepieces are a little bit sharper and have a more contrast, using my LX 85 6 inch f/5 reflector. The Meade 9mm has been my go to eyepiece for spotting really difficult galaxies in my Bortle 6 sky and what I consider to be one of my best all around eyepieces, just luck of the draw, so to speak. The ES 62 9mm just bested it.

The ES 62 5.5mm is a great eyepiece in that same scope and I seem to be going to it more and more.

I will let you know how the 14mm works out.

Many eyepieces, just not really expensive ones.
