TeleVue 76
The Tele Vue-76 combines Pronto's compact size with the APO optical performance of the Tele Vue-85. The expansive 5.5° rich-field drizzles your view with delicate jewel-like stars, while the APO performance of the new Nagler designed, multi-coated 2-element objective and 2" Everbrite diagonal produce natural stellar and planetary color rendition even at the highest useful powers. Small size and lighter weight permit use of lighter-duty tripods for easy field carrying and transportation. The padded shoulder bag provides protection and room for the scope and six eyepieces. If your interests crossover from astronomical to spotting or birding, and you demand the ultimate in portable performance the Tele Vue-76 is always waiting to deliver.
TeleVue TV 76 Outfit comes complete with ring mount, brass clamp ring, 2" Everbrite diagonal, 1.25" adaptor, 20mm TeleVue Plossl, Soft Carry Case.
Also available as OTA only with Soft Carry Case


TeleVue 85
The Tele Vue-85's mix of aperture and small physical size makes it a wonderful "go anywhere, do anything," crossover instrument—with Tele Vue quality, of course. With APO performance and airline portability, the Tele Vue-85 has been delighting astronomy and birding enthusiasts and reviewers alike. "Eye-popping performance that raises the standard of excellence for highly portable instruments." Evaluation of double-stars, lunar detail, deep sky and photography were reported in Sky and Telescope as: "Truly awesome! ...Incredible!...the view almost blew me off my chair!..." The conclusion, "...an extremely powerful, compact instrument capable of delivering stunning images of the universe."

TeleVue NP101
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.

TeleVue 102
At Tele Vue, we always try to provide good value in addition to great optical performance. With the Tele Vue-102 we offer the amateur a simpler, less expensive, 4" refractor which retains Tele Vue's core values; outstanding optical performance and superb mechanical quality.

The new Tele Vue-102 is a 4-inch, 2-element f/8.6 APO air-spaced doublet, similar to the appearance to the 4-element f/5.4 Tele Vue-101, but 5-inches longer. The Tele Vue-102 achieves similar diffraction limited, high power APO viewing as its 4" sibling, along with a wide 3 degree maximum visual field (compared to 4.9 degrees for the Tele Vue-101). A dedicated 0.8x reducer/flattener is available to permit great astrophotography of star fields at f/6.9 with the Tele Vue-102.

The Tele Vue-102 is offered as a complete package which Includes:  Custom hard shell case, screw-on lens cover, sliding dew shield, 2" Everbrite Diagonal, 1-1/4"-2" adapter, 20mm TeleVue Plossl, Ring Mount
Also available as an OTA with Custom hard shell case

I hope you agree that the 4" Tele Vue-102 offers the high standard of performance and features of Tele Vue refractors along with a unique value. Al Nagler.


TeleVue 102i
Our newest model APO refractor (102mm aperture, 880mm focal length, f/8.6) is designed to permit lower power, wider field binocular viewing - all in a more compact form.
The Tele Vue-102i sports the same overall length as the Tele Vue NP-101, making it easier to transport. It will fit in the NP-101’s soft carry bag (product code NPB-1001).

By having a tube that’s 5" shorter than the regular Tele Vue-102 model, it is now possible to use the Bino Vue without its standard 2x amplifier/corrector. The complete version of the Tele Vue-102i (product code WBC-4086) includes a Bino Vue body with a specially designed 1x prism compensator for correcting the slight aberrations introduced by a prism.
The 2x amplifier is not included as the new tube’s 5” shorter path length no longer requires it.

Current Bino Vue owners can purchase the OTA (Optical Tube Assembly) version of the Tele Vue-102i (product code WBO-4086), which includes the hard case, 1x prism compensator and flat-top adapter.

For terrestrial viewing (upright, but reversed image) the new comfortable 60º Everbrite mirror diagonal is sturdy enough to support and lock the Bino Vue with prism compensator attached.
