Explore Scientific 8x50 Right Angle Illuminated Finder Scope - VFEI0850 RA - Perfect for Astronomy, Stargazing & Telescope Alignment

Explore Scientific 8x50 Right Angle Illuminated Reticle Finder

The Explore Scientific 8x50 Right-Angle finderscope will show you a vast 6° field of view to help you easily find your favorite celestial objects. The finderscope features fully multi-coated optics, generous eye relief, and a silver body for sleek, modern look and an excellent viewing experience. With its scale markings and open center, the illuminated reticle of the 8x50 Finder not only helps you center objects precisely but gives a reference of the exact field of view in degrees as well.

A precision polished roof prism produces images that are right-side-up, left-to-right correct. In other words, things are not upside-down and backwards like most viewfinders. The illuminated reticle is truly designed for finding objects with its open center (so you don't mask the object you are centering with crosshairs) and scale markings for 1.5 degrees, 3 degrees, and 4.5 degrees (the edge of the field of view is the 6-degree boundary).
