HOW TO USE YOUR NEW TELESCOPE

Astronomical telescopes are designed in such a way that the image you will see

appear

UPSIDE DOWN and REVERSED, this is acceptable for viewing celestial bodies.

Using the Penta Mirror Assembly:
1.

A Basic Description: Bushnell is proud to present the
Exclusive Penta Mirror Technology. This Penta Mirror
Assembly provides the benefit of a convenient 90 degree
viewing angle commonly associated with diagonal mirrors.
However, the Penta Mirror provides something that
diagonal mirrors cannot provide--right to left correct views
of the any object viewed through the telescope. Unlike
traditional diagonal mirrors that provide backward images
of objects seen on land and in the night sky, the Penta
Mirror allows correct images to be viewed. The
groundbreaking benefit of this technology is that when
viewing and locating objects through the telescope, when
you want to move to the left, you move it to the left
intuitively instead of fumbling around the sky becoming
increasingly frustrated that you can’t move the telescope
the way your intuition tells you that you need to move it.
Objects on land at great distances can be seen naturally
(and readable) as if you were many times closer to the
object. Objects in the sky appear as they appear in most
star charts. For the first time ever, you will be able to see
what you would expect resulting in excellent viewing
satisfaction. In addition, the penta mirror has a special
insert that is easily removed by backing out the eyepiece
set screw and removing the insert to yield a 1.25” optical
format receiver.

How-To-Use: Just like any traditional diagonal mirror,
place the eyepieces directly into the rear of the Penta
Mirror Assembly then place the Penta Mirror directly into
the back of the telescope focusing tube, erecting lens or
Barlow lens (See Intended Configuration Diagram).
