Notwithstanding its moderate pricing level, the LX10 includes the exact same 8" optics as provided with more expensive Meade 8" LX200GPS. Every statement in this website pertaining to 8" LX200GPS optical performance applies equally as well to the 8" Model SC-8.
Meade LXD55-Series telescopes provide a new level of sophistication and precision at a moderate price. Six models of the series, including Schmidt-Newtonians and achromatic refractors, include the exclusive Meade LXD55 equatorial mount with Autostar control system.
