Cone of light behind an achromatic doublet objective lens (A) without (red) and with (green) a Barlow lens optical element (B). The Barlow lens, named after Peter Barlow, is a type of diverging lens which, used in series with other optics in an optical system, increases the effective focal length of an optical system as perceived by all components that are after it in the system.

Field lens: A correcting lens placed just before the image plane of a telescope. [citation needed] Telecompressor or focal reducer: Optical element to decrease the telescope's focal length and magnification (usually by a fixed percentage) and widen the field of view, providing opposite effects of a Barlow lens.
A 1951 USAF resolution test chart is a microscopic optical resolution test device originally defined by the U.S. Air Force MIL-STD-150A standard of 1951. The design provides numerous small target shapes exhibiting a stepped assortment of precise spatial frequency specimens.
Middle: Barlow tube. Right: The two lens auxiliary eyepiece. Background: The focus tube and main telescope tube containing the achromatic doublet objective lens. The Galileoscope uses a 32 mm (1 + 1 ⁄ 4 in) focuser, giving the telescope a great deal of versatility, since this is the standard size for eyepieces used in

A star diagonal, erecting lens or diagonal mirror is an angled mirror or prism used in telescopes that allows viewing from a direction that is perpendicular to the usual eyepiece axis. It allows more convenient and comfortable viewing when the telescope is pointed at, or near the zenith (i.e. directly overhead).
The Large Binocular Telescope at the Mount Graham International Observatory in Arizona uses two curved mirrors to gather light. An optical telescope gathers and focuses light mainly from the visible part of the electromagnetic spectrum, to create a magnified image for direct visual inspection, to make a photograph, or to collect data through electronic image sensors.
