ADJUSTING THE EYE CUP/
USING WITH AND WITHOUT GLASSES
The eyepiece eye cup (1) is adjustable� It should be
extended (1a) for viewing without and retracted for view-
ing with glasses (1b)�
ADJUSTING THE FOCUS
The focus is adjusted for objects at different distances
using the focusing ring (3)�
USING THE CLOSE UP LENS
The LEICA MONOVID 8x20 can also be used to provide a
magnified view of objects that are at close range�
To do this, the close up lens (5) supplied is screwed into
the inner thread (5a) on the monocular lens (clockwise)�
Depending on the position of the focusing ring, this
results in a viewing distance of around 25–30cm with an
identical magnification�
