Owners of fast Dobsonian\/Newtonians can enjoy a larger true field, free of secondary shadowing, than ever before.

In the late 70’s I designed an eyepiece sufficiently radical that I dared attach my name to it. Even today, I must admit a little discomfort when talking about “Nagler” eyepieces.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eWith “Naglers”, my aim is to approach the wide angle perspective of naked eye vision, while maintaining the highest degree of sharpness, contrast, and viewing comfort. The goal is to allow the telescope to virtually “disappear,” leaving the impact of “spacewalk” viewing.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e— Al Nagler\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"pageSectionTitle\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy Are There 3 Types of Naglers?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"pageSectionTitle\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo achieve the full magnification range over 82° apparent field of view requires two types: Nagler Type-5 with focal lengths of 31, 16mm and Nagler Type-6 with focal lengths of 13, 11, 9, 7, 5, 3.5, 2.5mm.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Type-5 permits the largest true field possible (31mm has 42mm field stop).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eType-6 models have shorter focal lengths, are parfocal, with similiar size and weight, and all with a comfortable 12mm eye relief.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Type-4 models feature about 18mm of eye relief and with the “instajust” eyeguard are best for eyeglass wearers or Dioptrx users in their 22, 17, 12mm focal length range.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTake a “spacewalk” across a wide, sharp 82° apparent field\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCompare a penny to a half dollar to see the relative size between a 50° and 82° apparent field – almost 3 times the area difference! And while others boast of impressive apparent field sizes, Tele Vue’s philosophy of “showing no field unless it’s fine” stresses full field image quality as the ingredient for impressive views. Blackened lens edges, anti-reflection threads and rubber eyeguards deliver maximum contrast. Adapter skirts for 2″ focusers on larger 1¼” models and rubber grip rings are additional Tele Vue “firsts”. Even 2″\/1¼” barrel models have an additional feature allowing the 2″ extension tube (EBX-2120) to be screwed on, which permits use of 2″ filters as well as 1¼”. 100% full field visual inspection on our own flat-field test instruments guarantees the performance of every Tele Vue eyepiece.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-mce-fragment=\"1\" aria-labelledby=\"tab-title-local_1\" role=\"tabpanel\" id=\"tab-local_1\" class=\"woocommerce-Tabs-panel woocommerce-Tabs-panel--local_1 panel entry-content\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eModel number: EN5-31.0\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFocal Lenght: 31 mm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBarrel Size: 2″\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eApparent Field of view: 82°\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eEye Relief: 19 mm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWeight: 2.2 lb\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eField Stop: 42 mm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eIn the Box\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-mce-fragment=\"1\" aria-labelledby=\"tab-title-local_2\" role=\"tabpanel\" id=\"tab-local_2\" class=\"woocommerce-Tabs-panel woocommerce-Tabs-panel--local_2 panel entry-content\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eEyepiece\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCaps\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eManuals \u0026amp; Warranty \u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eTele Vue Lifetime Warranty\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003ca rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0652\/6245\/2965\/files\/Tele-Vue-Eyepiece-Specifications-2.pdf?v=1669924225\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eTele Vue Eyepiece Specifications\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Tele Vue","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43125692694757,"sku":"TV-EN5-31.0","price":1105.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0652\/6245\/2965\/files\/tele-vue-nagler-31mm-type-5-en5-31-0-astronomy-plus-1_8f7d110d-f7c9-4e69-9a14-9162d3619d54.jpg?v=1690483799"},{"product_id":"celestron-outland-x-8x42-71346","title":"Celestron Outland X 8x42 (71346)","description":"\u003ch2\u003eCelestron Outland X 8x42\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSee the outdoors in a whole new way!\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCelestron's mid-size Outland Series was designed to meet the needs of every outdoor enthusiast, from birders and hunters to sports fans to travelers.
