Using the Rubber Eyecups

The zoom eyepiece includes a soft rubber eyecup for eyeglass wearers. Fold
down the rubber eyecups to observe the full field of view when wearing
eyeglasses.

Focusing

To focus slowly rotate the focuser knob until the image in the
eyepiece is clear and sharp. Refocusing is usually required if the
power is changed

Changing the Magnification

Rotate the magnification ring around the zoom eyepiece to change the
power level of the spotting scope. Refocus as needed.

Photography

To use your spotting scope as a telephoto lens, remove the rubber eyecup from the top of the eyepiece. Thread an
optional t-ring for your make and model of 35mm camera onto the T-threads located at the top of the eyepiece. Attach
your 35mm camera body to the t-ring. Celestron spotting scopes have fixed apertures and, as a result, fixed f/ratios. To
properly expose your subjects photographically, you need to set your shutter speed accordingly. Most 35mm SLR
cameras offer through-the-lens metering which lets you know if your picture is under or overexposed. Adjustments for
proper exposures are made by changing the shutter speed. Consult your camera manual for specific information on
metering and changing shutter speeds.
