The unique design of the Tele Vue Starbeam 1x39 Finderscope offers two modes of use: straight-through line-of-sight, or 90° angled viewing when the optical tube assembly (OTA) is pointed high overhead at or near the zenith. A mirror flips up for a more comfortable viewing angle when the tube is pointed up, and simply folds down when the OTA is pointed more parallel to the ground.
This scope is configured as an unmagnified finder with a larger 39mm aperture for a wide field of view and a 6 arc-min accuracy. In its straight-through setting, you see the natural sky with a 10 arc-minute field of view, and when using the mirror flipped up, the sky orientation is the same as when viewing through the scope s eyepiece. A center red-dot reticle helps with precise positioning and controls allow the brightness and blink rate to be adjusted.
This version of Starbeam comes with a Tele Vue Quick Release (QR) bracket and a dovetail. The QR bracket easily mounts to channels in the Tele Vue ring mounts and mounting rings-this makes installation and removal quick and easy for transport and storage, or for installation on other OTAs. The QR base will also fit on Orion and Sky-Watcher finder shoes as well as on some Vixen models not made in Japan
