Bresser Spektiv 20-60x60 [10/32] Controls

Controls

• Focus:

Look into the eyepiece (1) and rotate the focus wheel (3)

in either direction to focus on an object. Keep turning the

wheel until you can see the image clearly.

• Zoom:

Rotate the zoom control (2) to zoom in or out on an object;

then use the focus knob (3) to refocus.

• Moving the main tube:

This spotting scope has a main tube clamp (6) and fastening

screw (7). Turn the screw (7) anticlockwise to unfasten the

main tube clamp. You can then turn the entire main tube (4)

about its own axis to vary the eyepiece (1) position.

To fasten the main tube in the desired position, turn the fas-

tening screw (7) clockwise.

• Indoor versus outdoor:

Although you may casually observe through an open or

closed window, observing outdoors ensures optimal viewing

conditions. Temperature differences between indoor and

outdoor air and the low quality of window glass can blur im-

ages seen through the spotting scope.

• Sun shield:

Extend the sun shield (8) when strong sunshine af-

fects your visibility. Put your hand around the spot-

ting scope aperture ring and simply push the shield

out. But you should never look at or near the sun! To nd out

more, read the warnings in this manual.

Observing land objects

When viewing objects on land, you will be observing through

air with varying levels of refractivity due to varying air tem-

peratures. This phenomenon causes things to look wavy,

causing a loss of image quality. You may have noticed this

phenomenon when driving down a highway on a hot day.

If this optical phenomenon interferes with your viewing, try

focusing at low power to see a steadier, higher-quality im-

age. Also, try observing in the early morning, when air tem-

perature is relatively uniform.
