SYNCFOCUS SETUP (Reticle & Diopter)

Setting the Reticle Focus and Diopter Adjustment

Before you begin taking photos, a few simple, one-time adjustments should be made to ensure that you can get sharp photos of any subject by just using the main focus knob on the binoculars. This process will compensate for any variations in the eyesight or vision of the individual user:

1.Leave the rubber eyecups in their “up” position if you are not wearing glasses, or roll them down if you are. Grasp the left and right sides of the binocular, and pull them apart or push them together while looking through the binocular to adjust the eyepiece spacing until your view is a single circular image.

2.Look through just the left side of the binocular-you will see a black ring (reticle) in the center. Point the binocular at a plain, light background like the sky or a wall in your house.

3.Rotate the reticle focus (left eyecup-(E)) until the circular reticle appears as sharp as possible to your left eye. This compensates for any difference in between your vision and the correct focus for the camera.

4.Next, continuing to look through the left side only, aim at a distant object (preferably one containing fine detail such as a tree or sign), and adjust the binocular’s center focusing knob (K) until it appears as sharp as possible to your left eye.

5.Finally, view the same object through only the right side of the binocular, and rotate the diopter adjustment (right eyecup-(F)) until it appears sharp to your right eye (do not touch the center focus knob while doing this). This compensates for any vision differences between your left and right eyes.
