Excellent view of Saturn
Views through the Meade Series 5000 5.5mm Plossl are very good. Stars appear to be tack sharp across the entire field of view. In addition views of the planets were excellent. Unfortunately this means I will have to replace my standard orion plossls as the Meade Series 5000 outperforms them by a long way.

Very poor performance
My Orion 25mm and 10mm plossls give better results. The Meade Series 5000 5.5mm plossl seems to suffer from bad internal reflection.
