Telescopes Tele Vue

Concept: CCD cameras have challenged telescope optics beyond anything ever placed at the focal plane. Tele Vue knew it's APO objectives were up to the challenge, & with the proper tweaks would be extraordinary tools for the imager. With Tele Vue Imaging System (is) telescopes, they have refined their instruments & optional equipment beyond anything a CCD chip has seen.It started small (literally) in 2005 with the Tele Vue-60is & available Digital Micrometer Kit. Achieving critical acclaim with the 60is, Tele Vue was encouraged to further develop "is" telescopes & accessories to maximize aperture, real field coverage & performance, & to make the processes easier for the imager.For 25 years,
