Take a "spacewalk" across the widest, sharpest apparent field...
With "Naglers", my aim is to approach
the wide angle perspective of naked eye vision, while maintaining the highest
degree of sharpness, contrast, and viewing comfort. The goal is to allow the
telescope to virtually "disappear," leaving the impact of "spacewalk"
viewing. -Al Nagler
Compare a penny to a half dollar to see the relative size between a 50 degree and 82 degree
apparent field - almost 3 times the area difference! And while others boast of impressive apparent field sizes, Tele Vue's philosophy of "showing
no field unless it's fine" stresses full field image quality as the ingredient for impressive views. Blackened lens
edges, anti-reflection threads and rubber eyeguards deliver maximum contrast. Adapter skirts for 2" focusers on larger 1.25" models
(12mm Nagler Type 4 and 22mm Panoptic) and rubber grip rings are additional Tele Vue "firsts". Even
2"/1.25" barrel models have an additional feature allowing the 2" extension tube (EBX-2120) to be screwed on, which permits use of
2" filters as well as 1.25". 100% full field visual inspection on our own flat-field test instruments guarantees the
performance of every Tele Vue eyepiece.
