Since developing the Paracorr (Parabola Corrector) in 1989, TeleVue has made many refinements to enhance it's performance, for both visual use and imaging. By eliminating the effects of mirror-induced coma, "fast" scopes could be made as aberration-free as "slow" scopes.
TeleVue showed that f/4 scopes equipped with the Paracorr rivaled non-corrected f/8 scopes. Shorter, more compact Dobsonians with dramatically larger fields became much more practical. Indeed, at the 2009 WSP, Mike Lockwood took it a big step forward with his 20" f/3.0, "no ladder" Dob. With a scope that fast, the Paracorr was definitely required! Althrough reports of it working nicely were appreciated, TeleVue knew that, just as the standard Paracorr was optimized for f/4.5, the new Paracorr must be optimized for f/3.0. Hey, it's their "ethos", after all! And, as with the Ethos eyepieces, TeleVue's own Paul Dellechiaie played a major role in developing the Paracorr Type 2.
