The Tele Vue-NP101(Nagler/Petzval) represents our closest realization
yet of the ”ideal” multi-purpose photo/visual telescope. Its
snap-to-focus sharpness across even the widest true fields, and rich
planetary contrast will take your breath away. Its quality, easy
set-up, and airline portability beckons your use. Over 20 years ago we
reinterpreted the incredible design flexibility of the Petzval portrait
lens into an astronomical objective. No other design type affords the
freedom to simultaneously correct for: coma, astigmatism, field
curvature, secondary spectrum, spherical aberration, and
spherochromatism. The artful combination of materials and design
bestows the Tele Vue-NP101 with diffraction limited performance into
the furthest reaches of the visual spectrum. Manufacturing advances in
lens finishing, including interferometric monitoring of all surfaces,
and Tele Vue’s stringent assembly and quality control, insure
uniformly excellent results with every telescope, and a level of
manufacturer direct service all too rare. If your interests range from
terrestrial to rich-field or planetary astronomical, or to photography,
just put in your eyepiece or attach a camera and the NP101 is ready to
satisfy right out of its case.
