TeleVue Telescopes
TeleVue refractors, from the Tele Vue-60 to NP-127, can give at least a 3° field (six Moon diameters wide). And if you want illustrations of what these scopes can do on deep-sky objects, check out “The Messier Objects”, and “The Caldwell Objects” books by Stephen James O'Meara. All his illustrations were made using a 4” TeleVue telescope visually!
When it comes to viewing double stars, the Moon, Sun or planets, small APO refractors, because of their inherent high contrast and lower sensitivity to atmospheric turbulence, often rival or surpass far larger instruments. TeleVue refractors resolve to “Dawes Limit”, easily permitting 60x per inch of aperture for superb high-power viewing when atmospheric “seeing” permits.
And for imaging, some of the most astonishing deep-sky and planetary images come from small APO refractors.
