Limitations of
ordinary binoculars
You’re probably aware that
the color correction and reso-
lution of all high powered
binoculars are far less than
ideal. Usually the size,
weight, cost, inconvenience
and lack of interchangeable
eyepieces render them un-
desirable for all but the most
die hard fans.
Enter Bino Vue
We immediately recognized
the advantages of a binocu-
lar attachment that is used like
an ordinary binocular as far
as setting interpupillary dis-
tance without refo-
cusing and is set up
as easily as chang-
ing an eyepiece.
Because of the
high cost and a few
other limitations, we
hesitated bringing
this product to mar-
ket. However, we felt the as-
tonishing experience, in par-
ticular for planetary, lunar,
double star, and globular clus-
ter viewing should not be
denied.
Why add an image
amplifier
Our 2.0x image amplifier/
corrector compensates for
Bino Vue’s 5.1" of optical
path length as well as the
slight amount of naturally oc-
curring color and astigmatism
introduced into the image by
the additional prism glass.
Most noticeable in fast scopes
and at high power, we felt it
important to design out this
degradation. Bino Vue is the
only fully corrected system
available today that will nei-
ther vignette at the widest field
nor compromise your
telescope's high power per-
formance.
Bino Vue Uses
Bino Vue comes standard with
the Flat Coupler and 2x Am-
plifier installed on the body.
This permits the Bino Vue to
be used in all telescopes with
just a moderate focuser in-
travel required. The 2x Ampli-
fier has filter threads to accept
1¼" filters. The Flat Coupler
provides enough space for
the inclusion of filter without
hitting the diagonal mirror
when using 2" Tele Vue di-
agonals and the 2"-1¼" Tele
Vue "High-Hat" adapter.
If your telescope re-
quires the Bino Vue to be
parfocal because it cannot
reach focus in the standard
configuration then;
1) unscrew the 2x Amplifier
from the Flat Coupler,

Concept: At Tele Vue, the driving force has always been to get as close as possible
to the contrast, resolution and field of the most remarkable instrument of all: the
human eye. While always respecting the need for viewing comfort, convenience and
value, we have broken through conventional barriers to bring you eyepieces and
telescopes with performance dramatically closer to the “spacewalk viewing” goal.
One major limitation has been the lack of binocular viewing. Look at the night sky
with one eye closed. It’s missing a lot. Open both eyes and see the dramatic
improvement in resolution, contrast, faint star detection and viewing comfort. All
this plus an illusion of depth. Yes, your brain loves two eyed viewing, even when
it is not true stereo. Open your eyes and mind to Bino Vue — Al Nagler
