Zoom to M54 Kowa TSN 770 / 880 Adapter 

# 2454836

. It allows 

the connection of the Mark IV to KOWA spotting scope with male 
M54 thread. The adapter replaces the 2" coupling nut and offers 
a larger back focus reserve so that you can focus more easily to 
infinity. This solution is particularly suitable if you wear glasses. 
Further information can be found in the product description of the 
adapter.

Alternatively, the Mark IV, like many other astronomical eyepieces, 
can be used with the 1¼" / M41 eyepiece adapter for Kowa TSN 
770 / 880 Spotting Scopes 

# 2454520

 on corresponding Kowa 

spotting scopes. The adapter is pushed over the 1.25" nosepiece 
and fastened. Use the short scope adapter "A". For more informa-
tion, see the product description of the adapter.

focus more easily on infinity. This solution is particularly suitable for spec-

tacle wearers. It is simply attached with the coupling

ting Scope Adapter A and the 1¼" nosepiece, then
