Prism System
Your Carson 3D binoculars feature a
roof prism system
.
The prisms overlap closely allowing the objective (front) lenses to
line up directly with the eyepieces. The result is a slim,
streamlined shape in which the lenses and prisms
that magnify and correct the image are in
a straight line.
Eye Adjustments
How to adjust for distance between your eyes:
The distance between the eyes, called “interpupillary
distance,” varies from person to person. To achieve perfect alignment of lens to eye, follow these simple steps:
1. Hold your binoculars in the normal viewing position
2. Grasp each barrel firmly. Move the barrels closer together
or farther apart until you see a single circular field.
Always reset your binoculars to this position before using.
Congratulations on selecting your new Carson binoculars!
With reasonable care, your binoculars will provide you with years of enjoyment.
In order to achieve optimum performance, please read the instructions carefully on the
proper use and care of your binoculars.

EYE ADJUSTMENTS: HOW TO ADJUST FOR DISTANCE BETWEEN YOUR EYES
The distance between the eyes, called “interpupillary distance,” varies from person to person. To achieve perfect alignment
of lens to eye, follow these simple steps:
1. Hold your binoculars in the normal viewing position.
2. Grasp each barrel firmly. Move barrels closer together or further
apart until you see a singular circular field. Always reset your binoculars
to this position before using.
ED GLASS
Your Carson 3D-ED binoculars contain ED Glass (extra low dispersion glass) in their lenses. This ED Glass helps prevent
chromatic aberration (fringes of color that appear around the viewing image).
FOCUSING YOUR BINOCULARS:
Carson 3D binoculars have a center focus wheel and an
independent right diopter eyepiece to account for small
differences in the strength of each eye. Please follow the
steps below to focus properly:
1. Adjust the interpupillar distance.
2. Rotate the right eyepiece to its index mark and
sight on a fixed distant object.
3. Cover the right objective (front) lens with your
hand, then rotate the central focusing wheel until
the image in the left eyepiece is sharp.
4. Cover the left objective (front) lens with your
hand then rotate the right eyepeice until the
image is sharp. (Note this setting for future use.)
5. Image should now be focused to your individual
eyestrength.
TWIST-UP EYECUPS:
Your Carson 3D binocular features twist-up eyecups
designed to exclude extraneous light. If you do not wear
eyeglasses, you may choose to twist the eyecups out to
block stray light and reflections from your view. If you are
an eyeglass wearer, lowering the eyecups will bring your
eyes closer to the binocular lenses, providing an improved
field of view.
Waterproofing
All Carson 3D binoculars are
nitrogen purged
and
o-ring
sealed
to protect your binocular from water
damage. They are designed to protect against accidental splashing, rain or even full submersion in
up to 1 meter of water for up to 5 minutes.
Optical Coatings
All 3D binoculars feature
fully multi-coated optics
, meaning that all glass surfaces have multiple
coatings applied to them to prevent internal reflection and light loss. This results in images that are
brighter, sharper and higher in contrast.
Twist-Up Eyecups
Your Carson 3D binocular features
twist-up
eyecups
designed to exclude extraneous light.
If you do not wear eyeglasses, you may choose
to twist the eyecups out to block stray light
and reflections from your view.
If you are an eyeglass wearer, lowering
the eyecups will bring your eyes closer to the
binocular lenses, providing an improved field of view.
