Telescope-Service Giant Binoculars

The TS 20x80 triplet sets new standards in its class. A robust high-performance binocular for demanding birdwatchers as well as a fantastic rich field instrument for amateur astronomers. The TS 20x80 triplet is an advanced version of the classical 20x80 with far superior optical and mechanical properties. At a weight of only 2.4kgs the 20x80 triplet can still be considered a lightweight binocular and is therefore properly mounted on quality photo tripods. The integrated tripod adaptor allows for simple adaptation to any photo tripod without the need for further adaptors. Just set it up within a few seconds and begin joyful observations of both wildlife and the night sky! At 20x the dissolving power is excellent, at the same time image brightness is still very high due to the large aperture and the high quality full broadband multicoating. Superior Image Quality Through The Innovative Triplet Technology: Standard binocular objectives consist of two lenses each. The new three lens design of the TS 20x80 triplet allows for superior correction without the need for expensive ED substrates. Successfully introduced into the telescope market years ago we now offer the superior triplet objectives in the great world of quality binoculars. Less field curvature - the image field is quite flat, there are no disturbing distortions Better colour correction - in strong-contrast objects you will notice a drastically reduced blue fringe, further enhancing contrast and image sharpness Better sharpness over the entire field of view - three lenses allow for better correction over the entire field of view; stars remain small pinpoints even at the edge of the FOV Full Broadband Multi-Coating: Even if the objective is perfect a poor coating can destroy the image, killing contrast. All our binoculars feature the best multicoating on all optical surfaces. The image is noticably brighter and contrast is much better than with simple coatings. Often this will mark the difference between discerning a small detail and failing to see it at all. Central Mounting Bar And Its Advantages: The front part of the binocular is solidly connected to the rear part, drastically enhancing mechanical properties. At the same time twin images become less likely. A photo tripod adaptor (using a standard 1/4" thread) is part of the design, there is no need for further adaptors. One major advantage of this design feature is that you can always hold the binocular in its centre of gravity, reducing strain to your tripod. Hard Carrying Case During transport the binocular is safely stored inside a hard carrying case.

Photographical tripods
A quality photo tripod certainly resembles the cheapest and easiest method of mounting the TS 20x80. Any tripod with 1/4" bolt is compatible, as long as it is sturdy enough. We recommend the excellent Berlebach tripods and mounting heads..... further details on request

TS 25x100 - Light Gathering Giant

One of the top-notch binoculars currently available. Just compare the optical quality, the mechanics, the huge aperture and the low price - a powerful combination! Fully multicoated 100mm objectives provide for a bright and contrasty image.

The robust metal housing and the stabilizing central mounting bar will ensure joyful observations for years to come, there will be no miscollimation whatsoever.

Terrestrial Use:
The large field of view, enormous light-gathering power and smooth center focus turn this binocular into an ideal instrument for birdwatchers. Even in bad lighting conditions you will be able to discern tiny details - feathers of birds or distant animals somewhere in the dark forest or during dusk can be seen clearly.

Night-Sky Use:
Since aperture is the major factor of any astronomical instrument the TS 25x100 is one of the most powerful astronomical binoculars there is. Wander through the starry regions of the milky way and have a look at myriads of star clusters and nebulae. Our closest intergalactic neighbour, the Andromeda galaxy, can be seen in splendid detail together with its two companion galaxies. The prisms are generously oversized to provide a very good viewing comfort.

Central Mounting Bar And Its Advantages:
The front part of the binocular is solidly connected to the rear part, drastically enhancing mechanical properties. At the same time twin images become less likely.

A photo tripod adaptor (using a standard 1/4" thread) is part of the design, there is no need for further adaptors. One major advantage of this design feature is that you can always hold the binocular in its centre of gravity, reducing strain to your tripod.
Soft Carrying Bag:
The beautiful carrying bag safely stores the binocular during transport. At the same time you will have the binocular out and ready to use in a few seconds. Of course this bag also has a comfortable carrying belt.

The image is noticably brighter and contrast is much better than with simple coatings. Often this will mark the difference between discerning a small detail and failing to see it at all.

Single Eye Focus:
The TS 25x100 has a single eye focus mechanism that is particularly practical for astronomical use. It is especially suited if your eyes are very different, you can easily reach focus with both eyes, even without eyeglasses. At the same time eye-relief is large enough to allow for the comfortable use of eyeglasses.

Customer Feedback:
"The TS 25x1Just before Cristmass our Astronomy club recieved a pair of TS 25x100 binoculars. The binos are absolutely amazing and a great value for the price! No telescope will show M31 like the binos :) M57 is visible like a grey disc too :) And not to mention the sight of comet Machholz! We built a tripod for it... and are eagerly awaiting the Saggitarius region to rise again." - Berislav
