1.25" Orion Luminance/IR Cutoff Eyepiece Filter

1.25" Orion Luminance/IR Cutoff Eyepiece Filter

• IR filter blocks ultraviolet (UV) and infrared (IR) light wavelengths for higher contrast CCD images
• Advanced coatings applied to the precision polished optical glass minimize in-band reflections
• The 1.25" anodized aluminum cell threads into the nosepiece of an astrophotography camera or filter wheel
• This an excellent luminance filter for LRGB astrophotography
• Attaches easily to any 1.25" astrophotography accessory

Designed for use with with Orion monochrome imaging cameras or similar monochrome cameras, this filter efficiently blocks ultraviolet (UV) and infrared (IR) wavelengths, which can cause blurring and glare, color abnormalities, and reduced contrast in CCD images from cameras lacking a built-in UV/IR filter. The steep cutoffs below 390nm and above 690nm and the high (typically 97% or better) transmission of visual wavelengths -- including the important 656nm H-alpha line -- make this an excellent luminance filter for LRGB imaging. Advanced coatings applied to the precision polished optical glass minimize in-band reflections. The 1.25" anodized aluminum cell threads into the nosepiece of the camera or filter wheel. Protective case included.

• Fully multicoated
• Parfocal
• Rubber Eyeguards, Grip Rings, Filter Threads,
• Blackened Lens Edges, Saftey undercuts

Diffraction limited "on-axis" performance is a given. Using more expensive high-index glasses to reduce astigmatism and lateral color at the field's edge, Tele Vue Plossls deliver sharper images than any other brand of 4 or 5 element "Plossl" or Orthoscopic designs. The faster the focal ratio of your telescope, the greater your visual reward for using Tele Vue eyepieces. Tele Vue Plossls feature full multicoatings for greatest light transmission and contrast. Blackened lens edges and internal anti-reflection threads tweak the last bit of contrast for maximum image detail. The sharper field focuses faint star light into perceptible points and allows those with undriven mounts to gaze longer before repositioning the image.

Tele Vue 13mm Ethos 2" / 1.25" Eyepiece with 100 Degree Field of View. Reviews

Tele Vue 13mm Ethos 2" / 1.25" Eyepiece with 100 Degree Field of View.

• Focal Length - 13mm
• Effective Field Stop - 22.3mm
• Eye Relief - 15mm (accepts DIOPTRX eyesight astigmatism corrector)
• Barrel Size - 2"/1.25"

Tele Vue is known for its in-house eyepiece and telescope designs by Al Nagler; our latest eyepiece brings new meaning to the term "in-house." The concept for this eyepiece was first proposed by Tele Vue President David Nagler, with performance parameters giving it the fundamental characteristics (the ethos) of a Tele Vue eyepiece: high contrast, comfortable eye relief and full field sharpness. Control of astigmatism, field curvature, lateral color, angular magnification distortion correction (technical reference), and low pupil sensitivity for daytime use were specified criteria. Following Tele Vue's philosophy of pushing the state of the art, long-time Tele Vue employee and optical design protege Paul Dellechiaie took up the challenge and designed the basic eyepiece form. Under Al's guidance, Paul tweaked his design to fulfill the original goals. While sharpness is inherent to the optical design, contrast is maximized through the intelligent use of flat finished baffles and ultra low reflectance, high efficiency coatings tuned to the composition of each element. At the 2007 Northeast Astronomy Forum, Tele Vue once again broadened the amateur astronomer's perspective on the universe and introduced a new observing experience; 100° of pure Tele Vue quality. With a 13mm focal length evoking the original "Nagler" revolution, the field area of this new eyepiece is more than 50% larger than an 82° field. The Tele Vue Ethos is essentially multiple e

1.25" Orion Astrophotography Flip Mirror

1.25" Orion Astrophotography Flip Mirror

• The Orion Flip Mirror makes framing and focusing celestial objects for CCD astrophotography as easy as flipping a switch!
• Find and focus your target visually through an eyepiece, instead of tediously taking multiple test pictures
• Once you've focused the eyepiece view, just flip the lever and you're ready to capture a CCD image through an attached astrophotography camera
• Designed specifically for use with StarShoot Deep Space Imaging cameras and similarly sized astrophotography CCD cameras
• Accepts 1.25" telescope eyepieces (sold separately), features T-thread ring for imaging camera or camera-adapter attachment

Rather than having to take numerous photos to locate and focus your target, the Flip Mirror lets you do those things visually with an eyepiece. An internal mirror deflects the incoming light 90 degrees up into the eyepiece. A helical fine focus mechanism on the eyepiece holder lets you set the eyepiece focus to be parfocal with the camera. Then, once you've focused the object in the eyepiece, a flip the side lever drops the mirror to allow the light to enter the camera, rendering a sharp, focused CCD image. The Imaging Flip Mirror was designed specifically for use with StarShoot Deep Space imagers and similarly sized CCD cameras, for which it provides full sensor illumination. Male T-threads on the unit's metal housing allow direct attachment of the CCD camera body. The housing itself connects to a telescope's 1.25" focuser or adapter via the nosepiece, which alternatively can be removed to expose T-threads for direct coupling. The nosepiece is threaded for 1.25" filters. As convenient as it is for CCD imaging, the Imaging Flip Mirror also lets you enjoy visual observation when you want to take a brief break from shooting pictures. Maybe you want to catch an eye-full of that bright planet before it sets. You can do so without having to dismantle your camera setup! Why not streamline your astro-imaging routine and take an occasional break to enjoy the views while you're at it? Get the Imaging Flip Mirror today!
