Adjust your binocular for individual eye strength using the “diopter setting” as outlined in theinstructions for “Center Focus / Insta-Focus.”4. Your binocular is now adjusted properly for your eyes. You may now “zoom” to any powerand the subject will stay in focus. Note:To focus on an object at a closer distance, focus on the object at high power first and thenadjust the “zoom” lever to the desired lower power. With any “zoom” instrument, better qualityimages are possible at lower powers.
