HOW TO USE YOUR NEW TELESCOPE

Astronomical telescopes are designed in such a way that the image you will see

appear

UPSIDE DOWN and REVERSED, this is acceptable for viewing celestial bodies.

Using the Penta Mirror Assembly:

1.A Basic Description: Bushnell is proud to present the Exclusive Penta Mirror Technology. This Penta Mirror Assembly provides the benefit of a convenient 90 degree viewing angle commonly associated with diagonal mirrors. However, the Penta Mirror provides something that diagonal mirrors cannot provide--right to left correct views of the any object viewed through the telescope. Unlike traditional diagonal mirrors that provide backward images of objects seen on land and in the night sky, the Penta Mirror allows correct images to be viewed. The groundbreaking benefit of this technology is that when viewing and locating objects through the telescope, when you want to move to the left, you move it to the left intuitively instead of fumbling around the sky becoming increasingly frustrated that you can’t move the telescope the way your intuition tells you that you need to move it. Objects on land at great distances can be seen naturally (and readable) as if you were many times closer to the object. Objects in the sky appear as they appear in most star charts. For the first time ever, you will be able to see what you would expect resulting in excellent viewing satisfaction. In addition, the penta mirror has a special insert that is easily removed by backing out the eyepiece set screw and removing the insert to yield a 1.25” optical format receiver.

2.How-To-Use:Just like any traditional diagonal mirror, place the eyepieces directly into the rear of the Penta Mirror Assembly then place the Penta Mirror directly into the back of the telescope focusing tube, erecting lens or Barlow lens (See Intended Configuration Diagram).
