Tele Vue Paracorr Visual for 2" Focusers.

Tele Vue Paracorr Visual for 2" Focusers. Reviews

An optical chain is as good as its weakest link. With the development of 82 degree Nagler eyepieces, Tele Vue offers the largest, flattest and best corrected visual fields in the industry. Combine the Nagler revolution, Dobsonian revolution and Paracorr for the ideal mating for spectacular wide and sharp "spacewalk" observing.Coma makes stars look like blurry comets whose tails point out radially from the center of the field. The faster your scope's speed, the worse the effect. All parabolic mirrors used in Newtonian reflecting telescopes are limited in field sharpness due to coma. Even a perfectly made 13" f/4.5 parabola has only about 0.1 degree diffraction limited field.Previous attempts to correct for coma have been limited in usefulness. Some correctors were designed mainly for astrophotography. Dedicated coma correcting eyepieces were another approach. However, these were limited to 50 degree apparent fields and would orphan your existing eyepiece collection.Paracorr is a universal corrector that tightens and intensifies starimages on all f-ratios from f/3.5 to f/8 without adding any false color or spherical aberration! You no longer have to constantly shift a Dobsonian to keep objects centered for sharp viewing. Using a Tele Vue eyepiece, put M-13 at the edge of the field and enjoy resolving its beauty as it drifts across your view.Paracorr is recommended for use with all Tele Vue eyepieces because our Plossls, Wide Fields, Panoptics, an

Tele Vue VIP-2010 Paracorr Type-2 for Visual/Imaging Use Feature

  • Fully multi-coated 4-element coma corrector by Tele Vue
  • Eliminates or minimizes coma in fast telescope optical systems for sharper viewing or imaging
  • For use in telescopes as fast as f/3
  • Can be used as a visual or astrophotography accessory
  • Tunable to optimize performance with any eyepiece and telescope combination
Developed in 2010, this model can make an f/3 mirror act like an f/12 without a Paracorr. Essentially diffraction-limited across the field, it makes the new breed of f/3-f/4 "ladder-less" Dobs possible and superior in terms of convenience, field-of-view and optical perfection when using top quality mirrors. The Paracorr Type 2 allows separating the optical assembly from the Tunable Top and using it with Tele Vue imaging system components to permit use with SLR and CCD cameras. APS size formats 27mm diameter are recommended to minimize field vignetting. Ideal for mirrors as fast as f/3.
