Company Information

In 1996 the Pittsburgh based optics company, Buhl Optical, was acquired by Navitar, Inc., a leading manufacturer of superior quality optical lenses and complete customized optical solutions for the LCD & DLP projection and Machine Vision markets. After the acquisition, Navitar immediately began offering Buhl LCD projection lenses to its customers.

Buhl Logos Over the years, Navitar reworked and redesigned the entire line of lenses, dramatically improving the overall quality and performance. According to Navitar President, Julian Goldstein, “The changes were so significant the lenses were simply no longer Buhl lenses.” In June, 2005 the Buhl product line was renamed NuView projection lenses to reflect the completely redesigned, superior quality of the Navitar projection lens line. All part numbers, price structures, and warranties remain the same.

Improvements Include:

Redesigned mechanics
New multi layer, high-efficiency glass coatings
Performance to a tighter tolerance
Increased light throughput
Higher contrast level
Sharper overall image
Smoother mechanical operation
