Spacewalk FOV
The Nagler eyepiece line has been
designed to provide a visual "spacewalk" like experience, by providing an
expansive apparent FOV. The Type 7 series is no exception, with this
eyepiece providing an 82° apparent FOV! This expansive field of view
gives your observations a more immersive feel, bringing the wonder of visual
astronomy to even more awe-inspiring levels. This is made possible by not
only providing a wide view,
but one that has full-field sharpness, excellent contrast, and distortion
correction!

length, this eyepiece gives you a high power view of objects through your
scope! Observe the faint nebulous wonder of the Ring Nebula through a 2000
mm telescope, fill your view with the surface of the Moon with a 1500 mm
scope, and put the Hercules Globular Cluster front and center through an
1000 mm optic. All this and much more are available to you in immersive and
crisp detail through the Tele Vue 9 mm Nagler Type 7 Eyepiece!
Long Eye Relief
The Nagler Type 7 series will be a
welcome sight to eyeglass users! With 19 mm of eye relief, using this
eyepiece is a comfortable proposition even if you need corrective
lenses—especially helpful for those with an astigmatism that may
struggle to get a crisp view without their glasses. An adjustable and
locking eye guard is included to help setting your head at the proper exit
pupil position if you do not wear glasses; additionally helping block stray
light that can degrade image contrast. These features combine to make an
eyepiece that will shine for most any user!
Easy Eyepiece Changes
This eyepiece series is
parafocal across the four models in this line, meaning that changing out
your Nagler Type 7 eyepieces for a new perspective won't require refocusing!
For Nagler Type 7 eyepieces with 1.25" barrels like this Tele Vue 9 mm
model, you will need to use the
2" to 1.25" Satin HiHat Adapter
(sold separately). This adapter can additionally be used with
almost all* other Tele Vue 1.25" eyepieces for a parafocal performance
with the Nagler 7 series, giving you a fluid eyepiece swapping experience in Tele Vue's excellent
visual equipment ecosystem!

The Tele Vue 9 mm Nagler Type 7 eyepiece
can be used in just about any focuser or diagonal on the market today thanks

this eyepiece is compatible with the Tele Vue DIOPTRIX line for a sharp,
eyeglasses-free, astigmatism correction. If you're looking to bring this
eyepiece's awe-inspiring view to even more immersive heights, you're in luck
