PRISM SYSTEM:
Your Carson 3D binoculars
feature a roof prism system.
The prisms overlap closely
allowing the objective
(front) lenses to line up
directly with the eyepieces.
The result is a slim,
streamlined shape in which
the lenses and prisms that
magnify and correct the
image are in a straight line.

EYE ADJUSTMENTS: HOW TO ADJUST FOR DISTANCE BETWEEN YOUR EYES
The distance between the eyes, called “interpupillary distance,” varies from person to person. To achieve perfect alignment
of lens to eye, follow these simple steps: t alignmen o ey w these simple steps:
1. Hold your binoculars in the normal viewing
position.
2. Grasp each barrel firmly. Move barrels
closer together or further apart until you see
a singular circular field. Always reset your
binoculars to this position before using.
FOCUSING YOUR BINOCULARS:
Carson 3D binoculars have a center focus wheel and
an independent right diopter eyepiece to account for
small differences in the strength of each eye. Please
follow the steps below to focus properly:
1. Adjust the interpupillar distance.
2. Rotate the right eyepiece to its index mark
and sight on a fixed distant object.
3. Cover the right objective (front) lens with
your hand, then rotate the central focusing
wheel until the image in the left eyepiece is
sharp.
4. Cover the left objective (front) lens with your
hand then rotate the right eyepeice until the
image is sharp. (Note this setting for future
use.)
5. Image should now be focused to your
individual eyestrength.
TWIST-UP EYECUPS:
Your Carson 3D binocular features twist-up eyecups
designed to exclude extraneous light. If you do not
wear eyeglasses, you may choose to twist the
eyecups out to block stray light and reflections from
your view. If you are an eyeglass wearer, lowering the
eyecups will bring your eyes closer to the binocular
lenses, providing an improved field of view.
