A Red Dot Finder is a small gizmo that projects a red dot onto a clear screen that you look through to align with an object of interest.

A Telrad is derived from old fighter squadron targeting system, is much bigger, and projects various sized circles that you align with the object.
The circles represent different field of views.

Both are unmagnified views.

Hope this helps
