That is normal. Finder scopes are only used to make objects easy to locate. The image orientation does not matter for observation.

  • Alt-azimuth: easy to use, moves horizontally and vertically
  • Equatorial: enables precise tracking of objects with only one axis – ideal for high magnifications and astrophotography

  • Moon: from 30 mm
  • Planets: from 100 mm
  • Deep sky: from 150 mm

The first number indicates the magnification (here: 8x). The second number describes the objective lens diameter in millimeters (here: 42 mm).
ED glass (Extra Low Dispersion) reduces chromatic aberration (color fringing) and ensures brilliant, true-color images.

  • BK-7 (borosilicate glass): Standard, good imaging performance
  • BaK-4 (barium crown glass): Higher quality, rounder exit pupils, brighter and higher-contrast image

Warning notes
  • General safety instructions DANGER Risk of eye injuries! Never look directly at the sun or near the sun through this device. There is a risk of blindness! Children should only use the device under supervision. Keep packaging materials (plastic bags, rubber bands, etc.) away from children! There is a risk of suffocation! FIRE HAZARD! Do not expose the device – especially the lenses – to direct sunlight! The light concentration could cause fires. RISK of material damage! Do not dismantle the device! In case of a defect, please contact your dealer. They will contact the service center and may send the device in for repair. Do not expose the device to temperatures above 60°C!
  • Never look at the sun through an eyepiece/telescope without a certified protection filter. A moon filter can never be used for solar observation. The moon filter is only suitable for moon observation. The solar filter must be mounted in front of the telescope opening, not at the eyepiece. Otherwise, the concentrated light beam through the optics will immediately destroy the filter foil, leading to severe eye damage, including permanent blindness.
  • Never leave the optics unattended. Children and inexperienced adults could point the telescope at the sun without proper precautions and lose their eyesight.
  • Do not expose the device to high temperatures.

If you wear glasses, this allows you to see the entire field of view of the Porro-prism binoculars. There is also a dioptre compensation of +/-8, which you can use to compensate for small differences in vision between your eyes. Weatherproof and robust Thanks to their waterproof design, the binoculars can be used in wet or foggy weather conditions, as water and moisture cannot enter the housing.
