The Meade 14 Inch LX-200 ACF f/10 OTA with UHTC is a premium Advanced Coma-Free catadioptric optical tube featuring diffraction-limited optics that deliver coma-free, flat-field performance rivaling much more expensive Ritchey-Chrétien systems. The telescope employs an oversized low-expansion borosilicate primary mirror, Schott borofloat glass corrector plate, and Meade's Ultra-High Transmission Coatings (UHTC) which increases light transmission by nearly 20% for exceptionally bright, high-contrast views of celestial objects. Designed specifically for demanding astrophotographers and observational astronomers, it features a primary mirror lock mechanism that prevents mirror shift during long-exposure imaging, and includes a Losmandy-style dovetail for compatibility with quality mounts and pier systems.
