to use your night Spirit with a 35 mm camera or camcorder you will need the following:
1. If you plan to use a camcorder then your camcorder must have a MACrO feature. Most
modern camcorders today have a MACrO feature built-in.
2. If you plan to use a 35mm camera, you will need a MACrO lens. If you
don’t have one, we advise that you contact your local camera store.
3. You may or may not need a Step-Up or Step-DOWn ring in order to
adapt the camera adapter to your lens. nOte: the camera adapter
comes with 37 mm and 52 mm threads. If you need other sizes your
local camera store should be able to help.
remove the rubber eyecup from the night Spirit.
Screw the camera adapter onto the front of the lens on your video camera’s lens or your 35mm
camera’s lens.
Loosen the three set screws on the camera adapter.
place the camera adapter over the night Spirit’s eyepiece.
tighten the three set screws to fit snugly to the night Spirit’s eyepiece
You may need to focus the 35 mm camera or video camera in combination with the night Spirit
in order to get the sharpest possible image.
We suggest that you find an open space to work in. Focus the night Spirit so that the scene is
at its sharpest. For best results you should disable the auto focus (if any) on either the 35mm
camera or the video camera and manually focus the 35mm camera or the video camera. Once
the image is sharp, then simply adjust the night Spirit’s front lens to change focus.
