After following Binoboy's instructions I was able to remove they eyepiece via removing the external ring. Most of my standard 1.25 inch eyepiece do achieve focus in it...that is the good news. The bad news is that I have no idea how they would permanently connect to it. The width of the connection ring for the provided zoom is substantially wider than that of the barrels on the 1.25 inch eyepieces I have on hand. If a seriously stepped-down adaptor ring could be purchased then I believe they would work. The 25 mm Meade Plossl and the Celestron zoom provide very acceptable images in this scope. The Meade 5000 series plossl works but only if placed 1/2 inch off of the entrance to the scope body.</blockquote>
