December Astronomy Article

Posted By Michael Aaron McNeely

Hi. I found this on the TeleVue website:

http://www.televue.com/Pdf/Astronomy_TVO_Article.pdf

It is a pdf of the Nagler at 25 article that ran in the December Astronomy magazine. This is a very nice article.

Happy holidays. Let's all wish for a TeleVue Christmas!

Starbeam Quick-Release?

Posted By Michael Aaron McNeely

Hi, I just obtained a Starbeam finder. I would like to install it with a quick-release bracket of some sort. Does TeleVue make these? They have one for the SolSearcher. Thanks.

Nagler Zooms

Posted By Michael Aaron McNeely

I would like to hear some opinions about the 6-3mm Nagler Zoom. I have read mosly positive reviews such as the one posted on the Company 7 website (see below). The only negative review was that of Phil Harrington in his Star Ware book. He claimed that the Nagler Zoom was the best he had seen, but that "By their very nature, zooms will dim the view as they are turned to their shortest focal lengths, and the Nagler is no exception."

TeleVue Japan

Posted By Michael Aaron McNeely

I found this site will surfing:

http://www.tvj.co.jp/10shop_televue/02shop_televue.html

It features many interesting photos such as a disasembled focuser and others with an artsy appeal. I particularly like the TV-102 closeup.

Merry Christmas and happy holidays.
