3.2.9.3 Focusable Pol Eyepiece
The focusable eyepiece can be set into the binocular photo tube with upright image.
The focusable Pol eyepiece contains a reticle firmly glued into it (cannot be changed), which is of
defined orientation. When changing the interpupillary distance on the binocular photo tube, the
two eyepiece tubes follow this rotary motion synchronously, so that the position of the orienta-
tion grooves in the eyepiece tubes remains unchanged.
The PL 10x/23 GW foc. Pol eyepiece can be combined with a PL 10x/23 GW foc. eyepiece.
