REFLEX SIGHTS AND FINDER SCOPES
Reflex sights and finder scopes are small viewing devices attached to the side of a telescope to help the user
acquire objects in the eyepiece of the telescope. They serve the same purpose as a rifle scope, ensuring that
your telescope is pointed directly at the object you wish to view. Since telescopes have a relatively narrow field
of view, these sights and finder scopes make locating objects much easier.
REFLEX SIGHTS
Reflex sights do not magnify but have an optical window with a red dot or crosshair pattern displayed on it.
#F001 Red Dot Finder:
The simplest reflex sight to use is the Stellarvue Red Dot
Finder #F001. This is an inexpensive, plastic reflex finder that projects a red dot on a
glass window. The red dot indicates where the telescope is pointed.

The F001 red dot finder uses the standard BB gun mount. We offer a number of bases
that allow you to attach this finder to your telescope. For this telescope use the F001EF.
ADVANCED REFLEX SIGHTS
We also offer a more advanced reflex sight, the multi-reticle finder #F002. This
finder permits the user to select the desired reticle pattern including a red dot (two
sizes), a circle, or a crosshair pattern.
