USING THE CAMERA ADAPTER (OPTIONAL)

USING THE CAMERA ADAPTER (OPTIONAL)

To use your Aries scope with a 35-mm camera or camcorder the following features needed to be preserved in the mentioned devices:

1)the camcorder to be used should have MACRO feature. Most modern camcorders today have a MACRO feature built-in.

2)35-mm camera to be used should contain MACRO lens. If you don’t have one we would advise you to contact your local camera store.

3)You may or may not need a STEP-UP or STEP-DOWN ring in order to make the camera adapter fit your lens.

NOTE: The camera adapter comes with 37-mm and 52-mm threads. If you need other sizes we would advise you to contact your local camera store.

Here are the steps to be followed while fixing Aries to your camera or camcorder:

Remove the rubber eyecup from the Aries riflescope.

Screw the camera adapter onto the front of the lens on your Video camera lens or your 35-mm camera lens.

Loosen the three set screws on the camera adapter.

Place the camera adapter over the scope’s eyepiece.

Tighten the three set screws to fit snugly to the scope’s eyepiece

You may need to focus the 35-mm camera or video camera in combination with the rifle-scope in order to get the sharpest possible image.

We would advise you to focus the Aries riflescope in the open air. For the best performance you should disable the auto focus (if any) on either the 35-mm camera or the video camera and manu- ally focus the 35-mm camera or the video camera. Once the image is sharp simply adjust the scope’s front lens to change the focus.

An important thing to remember is that our system is arranged in such way that the pictures are taken of the phosphorous screen of the Aries riflescope that is only 2-3 inches away , not of an object itself that could be at a different distance from you.
