How to use this Telescope 2
[Viewfinder]
A telescope with a high magnification has a narrow FOV so that pointing it at the target is not
easy. A
Viewfinder
can help you aim. The Viewfinder of this
telescope consists of a
"Front Sight"
(a protrusion on the tip of
the hood) and a
"Rear Sight"
(a sighting ring at the back of the
body tube).
How to use this Telescope 3
[Eyepieces]
The magnification of the telescope can be
changed by exchanging eyepieces
†
. The
image condition changes according to the
magnification.
Selecting the appropriate eyepiece (magnification) is important for good observations.
●
When first pointing the telescope at an object, use the Eyepiece (large) with the lower
magnification because its wider FOV makes it easier to find the object.
●
To observe bright, compact objects in detail, the Eyepiece (small) with the higher
magnification is more effective.
●
In contrast, to observe faint, extended objects, the Eyepiece (large) is better because of its
wider FOV and brighter image.
The detail specifications of the Eyepieces are written at the end of this document.
1.
Look into the Rear Sight ring from behind.
2.
Watch the target object through the center of the Rear Sight ring, and align the Front Sight
marker in-line between the Rear Sight and the target. If the luminous sticker on the Front Sight
loses its glow, illuminate it with a flashlight for a while to recharge it. You should try not to look
at the flashlight because it can dazzle your eyes and interfere with the observations.
3.
After aligning the telescope properly with the Viewfinder, the target will appear in the FOV of
the telescope.
How to use this Telescope 4
[Shooting Photos]
This kit includes a guide ring for a small camera to help you shoot photos through the telescope.
1.
Attach the
Guide Ring
Ⓠ to your smartphone camera or web camera with adhesive tape.
2.
Fit the
Guide Ring
Ⓠ into the depression of the Eyepiece to align them. Then shoot photos.
●
When your hand trembles while holding the smartphone, it
disturbs the shooting. Try to damp the trembling by resting
your elbows on a stable place or folding your arms tightly
to your sides.
●
Functions to lock the focus and/or brightness (AE/AF lock),
can be useful if available on your camera.
※Depending on the object image conditions, you may need to adjust the
camera settings (sensitivity, exposure, and so on.)
※To master the use of the Viewfinder practice on obvious objects, such as distant buildings.

Assembly Procedure 5
[Tripod]
How to use this Telescope 1
[Focus]
It is necessary to use a tripod for stable observations.
You need to focus the telescope to observe objects.
Focus by adjusting the position of the Eyepiece based on the distance to the target.
1.
Use a general-purpose tripod for a still/video
camera
†
. Tighten the tripod mount screw into the
Tripod Connection Nut
Ⓛ (Ⓑ) on the bottom of
the telescope.
2.
Set the tripod on a level, solid floor. Spread the
tripod legs fully apart and adjust the height to a height suitable for observation.
† standard 1/4" mount screw size
1.
Attach Eyepiece (large)
(lower magnification) to the Telescope and point it at a distant location.
An image seen correctly through an astronomical telescope is inverted (rotated 180 degrees).
Do not worry about this.
2.
Point the telescope at a distant object, such
as a sign board or a chimney, then rotate
the grip of the Draw Tube until you get a
sharp image. Be careful not to force the
Draw Tube.
A telescope cannot focus on nearby
objects. Please observe objects at least 5
meters or so away.
3.
If you cannot get the right focus, even by
adjusting the Draw Tube, please check if
all the lenses are assembled in the correct
positions and orientations.
If you use this telescope outside during the daytime, be careful NOT to point the
telescope near the Sun.

An out of focus image
† The magnification value is calculated as the primary lens focal length divided by the eyepiece focal length.
