Tele Vue Optics: Redefining Excellence in Astronomy
Tele Vue Optics is known for its innovation, quality, and performance in astronomical equipment. Since it started, Tele Vue has been leading in designing and making high-quality eyepieces and telescopes that have changed how astronomers and enthusiasts observe the night sky. With a product line that has evolved over decades, Tele Vue remains dedicated to excellence.
A Legacy of Innovation
Tele Vue Optics was founded in 1977 by Al Nagler, an optical engineer passionate about astronomy. Nagler aimed to create optical instruments that offered clear and comprehensive views of the universe. This goal was achieved by introducing the Nagler eyepiece series in the 1980s. These eyepieces set a new industry standard with their broad fields of view and excellent optical performance, allowing observers to see celestial objects in great detail.
Milestones in Telescope Design
Tele Vue's dedication to innovation is evident in its range of refracting telescopes. In 1984, Tele Vue introduced the Renaissance, a groundbreaking refractor that set a new benchmark for optical quality and portability. This was followed by a series of high-quality refractors that have become favorites among amateur and professional astronomers.
2006 Tele Vue introduced its imaging system telescopes, including the NP-101is, NP-127is, and TV-102iis. The "is" designation in these models stands for "Imaging System," highlighting their optimized design for both visual observation and digital imaging.
Eyepieces That Captivate
Tele Vue's eyepiece lineup is nothing short of legendary. From the original Nagler series to the revolutionary Ethos eyepieces, which offer an astounding 100-degree apparent field of view, Tele Vue eyepieces provide an immersive viewing experience that captures the beauty and grandeur of the cosmos. The Panoptic and Delos series continue this tradition, offering wide-field and high-contrast views that make them essential tools for serious astronomers.

Tele Vue's commitment to enhancing the observational experience extends beyond telescopes and eyepieces. Their range of accessories is designed to complement and improve the performance of their optical instruments. The Everbrite diagonals are celebrated for their superior reflectivity and build quality, ensuring that the light path remains pristine. The Starbeam and Sol-Searcher finderscopes are invaluable tools for locating celestial objects, with the Sol-Searcher being particularly popular among solar observers.
The Bino Vue binocular viewer allows for comfortable two-eyed viewing, significantly enhancing the perception of detail and depth. Powermates, Tele Vue's advanced Barlow lenses offer exceptional magnification without compromising image quality.
