Panoptic Eyepieces

The Tack Sharp, Long Eye Relief,
68° Field Eyepiece

TeleVue's Panoptic eyepieces have full multi coatings, blackened lens edges, filter threads, rubber grip rings, lens covers, fold-down eyeguard and an undercut in the barrel for extra locking security!

The 41mm Panoptic eyepiece is a big brother to the 24mm Panoptic (largest 1.25" field).

With its 46mm field stop, the 41mm Panoptic delivers the largest 2" field possible.

An adjustable and removable screw-type top allows quick, comfortable eye positioning. The scalloped shape gives a positive grip.





The 35mm Panoptic has a large true field with plenty of eye relief for eyeglass wearers. When combined with a Paracorr to correct the coma of an f/4.5 Newtonian, performance is spectacular across the 68 degree field. Imagine, sharp star clusters at the extreme edge of the field along with a 6.8mm exist pupil!

The 27mm Panopticis housed in a 2" barrel like the 35mm, the 27mm is lighter & smaller. It's perfect for any telescope size, type or speed, where a little more magnification is desired, yet still allows full field viewing with eyeglasses.
For example, with the Tele Vue-102, it gives 33x and a true field of 2 degrees!

The 24mm Panoptic was the Sky & Telescope “Hot Product for 2003” and is designed to produce the largest true field possible in a 1-1/4" eyepiece. (Its 27mm field stop is the same as the 32mm Tele Vue Plossl). The higher power darkens the sky background while the greater magnification yields more details on extended objects. Further, its light weight (1/2 lb.), comfortable 15mm eye relief, and tapered top instantly make the 24mm Panoptic the ideal eyepiece for getting the maximum field for binocular viewers.

The 22mm Panoptic is similar in performance to the 27mm. It fits 1 1/4" as well as 2" focusers, and works with all Tele Vue Barlows and Powermates. The 2" barrel section has an internal thread to allow addition of the EBX-2120 2" Barrel Extender. This permits use of 2" filters.

Size, weight and performance make the 19mm Panoptic an ideal mid power choice. Ideal "soul-mate" to Bino Vue. Parfocal with 15mm and other smaller Plossls and Naglers.

With comfortable eye relief and sharp 68 degree field, this 15mm Panoptic 1¼" eyepiece is a good, modest priced alternative to a 16mm Nagler Type 5.
