Tele Vue Visual Imaging Paracorr Type
Tele Vue Visual Imaging Paracorr Type-2
Make even an f/3 Newtonian act like an f/12 with this incredible coma corrector from TeleVue! Designed for both the visual observer and astrophotographer, this adaptable optical add-on will beautifully tighten your Newt or Dob's star shapes for an awe-inspiring experience. Bring the TeleVue Visual Imaging Paracorr Type-2 into your optical system and elevate your experience today!
TeleVue set out to conquer the coma inherent to Newtonian designs and especially prevalent on the increasingly fast Newt and Dob designs in use today, and created the Paracorr—a universal coma corrector that is effective down to f/3 and can accommodate wide FOV eyepieces unlike earlier corrector designs! Turn blurry comet shaped stars into to sharp round points by simply inserting the Visual Imaging Paracorr Type-2 into your 2" focuser and setting your eyepiece into the tuneable top. The optics of the Paracorr provide excellent spherical correction without adding false color, giving you clean and clear upgrade to your fast reflector's performance. The Visual Imaging Paracorr Type-2 achieves this while keeping your field of view mostly untouched, providing only a slight 15% Barlowing effect. The tuneable eyepiece top accepts 2" eyepieces, with an 1.25" adapter included; and can be removed to install the separately available T-Ring adapters for astrophotography use. These optical and mechanical elements come together with TeleVue's renowned quality for an elegant upgrade to your Newtonian scope that "...Eats Coma"!
Incredible Quality and Adaptable Design
The TeleVue Visual Imaging Paracorr Type-2 brings the brand's high quality and exacting optical designs to your Newtonian or Dobsonian telescope for premium coma correcting performance through your eyepiece or camera!
Tuneable Visual Experience
The TeleVue Visual Imaging
Paracorr Type-2 features a tuneable visual top to ensure that your entire
eyepiece collection can experience this optical accessory's incredible
correction in full force! With a twist of a thumbscrew, the top can slide up
and down to adjust the eyepiece setting to different spacings and then
locked back in place. Discrete settings are marked with a letter guide,
which corresponds to the TeleVue eyepiece chart in the manual (available in
the Product Attachments tab). For non-TeleVue eyepieces, TeleVue suggests
first focusing with a TeleVue eyepiece at its proper setting and then
inserting the third-party eyepiece and adjusting the tuneable top until
focus is achieved. This tuneable top natively supports 2" eyepieces, with an
1.25" to 2" adapter included to makes the TeleVue Visual Imaging Paracorr
Type-2 compatible with most eyepieces in use today!
Please Note: While Barlows and collimating tools can be used with the
TeleVue Visual Imaging Paracorr Type-2, these should not reach any
further than 1.75" into the Parcorr.
Adaptable to Imaging
This capable coma corrector
doesn't just bring stellar views to your eyepiece, but also your camera!
Removing the tuneable top reveals threads for the sold separately
TeleVue Standard T-Ring Adapter for 2.4" Focuser,
Tele Vue 2" to 2.4" IS Adapter,
TeleVue M48 T-Adapter for Canon Cameras,
TeleVue Wide T-Adapter with Bayonet for Nikon F, and other TeleVue 2.4" adapters. Combining the TeleVue Visual Imaging

industry standard 55 mm of spacing (spacers not required for TeleVue
T-rings) will allow you to capture breath taking images within an APS-C
sized image circle! The Paracorr additionally sports 2" filter threads at
the front, allowing you to enhance your imaging experience further with your
user supplied filter of choice!
