Refractor Telescopes

How to buy your first Celestron telescope - Learn More


Refractor telescopes were the earliest type of optical telescope and they are also sometimes referred to as a dioptric telescope. The refracting telescope uses a lens as its objective to form an image and is mainly used as an astronomical telescopes but is also used for long focus camera lenses. All refracting telescopes use the same principles, the combination of an objective lens and an eyepiece which is used to gather more light than the human eye is able to collect on its own, then focus it in a bright and clear magnified image. To calculate a refractor telescopes magnification you divide the focal length of the objective lens by that of the eyepiece. Popular refractor models include the Celestron Powerseeker range of telescopes.
