    AI Overview
    A half pentagonal prism (or half-penta prism) is an optical component used in telescopes—typically as a 45-degree diagonal—to deviate the line of sight without inverting or reversing the image, providing a correct, non-mirrored view ideal for terrestrial observing. These prisms often feature aluminized reflecting surfaces for high efficiency, often used in 1.25-inch diagonals for refractors or Catadioptric systems. 
    Key Features and Applications: 
    • Deviation: Deviates the light path by 45 degrees, offering a comfortable viewing angle for terrestrial, non-inverted images.
    • Image Orientation: Unlike standard star diagonals that show an upright but mirrored image (reversed left-right), the half-penta produces a fully corrected image, making it excellent for viewing landscapes or ships.
    • Compatibility: Best suited for refractor and Cassegrain telescopes; not recommended for Newtonian reflectors due to back focus requirements.
    • Components: Commonly available in 1.25" diagonal housings, such as the Long Perng 1.25" Half Pentaprism Diagonal. 
    Common Procurement Options: 
    • Edmund Optics: Offers 10mm and 25mm aluminized half-penta prisms for custom building.
    • Agena Astro: Stocks the Long Perng 45-deg diagonal.
    • Experimental/Surplus: Various roof prism and half-penta options exist on eBay and Alibaba. 
    These prisms can also be paired with Schmidt prisms to create a Pechan prism pair for advanced image erection.

    Is a prism used in a telescope?
    Reflective prisms are used to reverse, rotate or deviate the beam of light. These prisms work on the principle of total internal reflection. They are used in optical instruments like binoculars, periscopes and reflecting telescopes.
