Attaching a Camera

 

 

To attach a camera to your Wide View Spotter: 
 
1.  Remove all visual accessories. 
2.  Thread the proper T-Ring onto the built-in T-Adapter threads at the end of the eyepiece 

holder. 

3.  Mount your camera body onto the T-Ring the same as you would any other lens. 

Focusing The Camera 

The focusing mechanism is the same photographically and visually. However, due to the high 
magnification, the micro prism focuser in your camera may "black out." If this is the case, you 
will have to use the ground glass portion of your focusing screen, which itself may be dark. For 
the best results, take your time. Look at your subject carefully to make sure that you have the 
sharpest possible focus. To achieve a very sharp focus, consider using a focusing magnifier. 
These devices are readily available from your local camera store. 
 
If you can not get a sharp focus, check to see if your subject is closer than the near focus distance 
listed in the "Technical Specification" section. 
  

Storing Your  Wide View Spotting Scope

 

To minimize the need to clean your spotting scope, replace all lens covers after use. The spotting 
scope can be left on a tripod for display purposes or returned to its shipping carton. Since the rear 
cell of your  Wide View spotting scope is not sealed, the eyepiece or protective cover MUST be 
placed over the opening in the rear cell when not in use. This will prevent contaminants from 
entering the optical system.
