TELE VUE TELESCOPES FOR BIRDERS
Images by Messrs. Doug Buck & Walt Spence
Snowy Egret
 

Telescope: Tele Vue-85 APO

Doug was unhappy with the nature images taken through the telephoto on his camera. Walt offered the use of his TV-85. Now the images are excellent enough to be marketed though the Heritage Museum of Northwest Florida. They tell us, "People gasp and sit up straight when we show them the images." Also, "Dough has since obtained a couple of large telephoto lenses for action shots… . The TV-85 beats both on sharpness." The TV-85 and Canon Rebel DSLR images here are from the Boggy Bayou area in the Florida panhandle. Except where noted, all these were taken at prime focus.

Heron
Note: At 35', the bird was close enough that this image is actually a "vertical panoramic" of two shots. The original panoramic image can be printed 64" inches tall.
