SPOTTING SCOPE INSTRUCTIONS

MOUNTING

Remove the spotting scope from the packaging. Attach the tripod with the provided screw to the tripod mount hole located on the base of the spotting scope. Spread the tripod legs and set on a solid surface.

MAGNIFICATION

Note: Some specialized spotting scopes have a fixed magnification with no zoom. For zoom magnification scopes, grasp and rotate magnification ring to change power. The magnification ring is typically found near the eyepiece. When rotating this ring, the image appears to zoom in and out. It may be necessary to re-focus when the magnification is changed.

FOCUSING

Most focus rings are found in front of the eyepiece on the spotting scope body. By turning this adjustment, the image will sharpen until in focus. On some spotting scopes, the focus ring is on or near the eyepiece.

USING THE TRIPOD

(Included with most spotting scopes, except special use spotting scopes)

To pan side to side or up and down, unloosen the tripod control handle by rotating it counterclockwise. To lock into a desired position, rotate the tripod control handle clockwise.

CARE

The lenses of your spotting scope are coated for highest light transmission. As with any coated optics, special care must be taken in cleaning the lenses. Moisten the surface of the lens slightly and wipe dry using a circular motion starting at the center of the lens. Wipe or brush off any dirt or dust on the outside of the spotting scope.

CAUTION

Never disassemble your spotting scope. Special tools and equipment are required for service and irreparable damage can result from untrained attempted service. Unauthorized service may also void the warranty.

CAUTION: DO NOT LOOK AT THE SUN THROUGH THIS SPOTTING SCOPE AS SEVERE DAMAGE TO YOUR EYES MAY RESULT!

Remote Shutter Release Note

Whenever possible, using the included remote shutter release cable is recommended to avoid accidentally jarring the camera when the SNAP button is pressed. Due to the high magnification of the camera, any motion when the shutter is open can result in photos with a blurred or shaky appearance. The remote cable is plugged into the jack on the bottom of the camera pod as shown below. Pressing the button on the remote will then take a photo, just as if SNAP was pressed. If the remote shutter cable is not available, you may instead use the self-timer (as previously described in the manual) to trip the shutter without touching or jarring the camera. However, the timer will not allow you to take a photo at the exact moment you choose, as the remote cable will.
