24” f/3.85 Slipstream telescope
and Tele Vue eyepieces.”

(from an unsolicited e-mail to David Nagler)
Hi David and Al,
Although I am still active in imaging, I have decided to go back to viewing and have taken
possession of a new 24” f/3.85 Slipstream telescope from Tom Osypowski. You will be happy to
know that I have acquired a treasure trove of TeleVue eyepieces to complement this telescope,
specifically: 26 and 20mm Nagler Type 5, 17.3, 14, 10, 6, 4.5mm Delos, Paracorr Type 2,
and 24mm Panoptics for binocular viewing. After using a Delos, “that was all she wrote;”
you have created the perfect eyepiece. The Delos eyepieces are a joy to use and sharp, sharp,
sharp! I wanted to thank you for continuing your quest to make the best eyepieces for the
amateur community. I am very glad that you don’t compromise ... in this world there are
many who appreciate this and appreciate what you and Al have done for our avocation. Hard
to imagine what viewing would be like without your creations.
Best,
Tony Hallas
