BRAUN Ultralit 20-60x60: Field Setup Guide

Quick Answer

To get the best views with your BRAUN Ultralit 20-60x60, mount it on a stable tripod, set the zoom to a low power first, focus the eyepiece, then aim and adjust magnification.

Field Setup Steps

1. Mount the scope: Attach the Ultralit to a sturdy tripod using the standard tripod mount. Ensure the clamp is tight and the scope is level. If the scope feels loose, tighten the mount screw before proceeding.
2. Set zoom to lowest power: Turn the zoom ring to 20x (or 15x on the 15-45x60) to get the widest field of view. This makes it easier to find your target. Always start at low power to avoid losing the subject.
3. Focus the eyepiece: Look through the eyepiece and rotate the focus ring until the image is sharp. Do this at low power first for a clear baseline. Re-check focus after changing magnification, as it may shift slightly.
4. Aim at your subject: Use the sight or simply align the scope with your eye. Pan slowly to locate the bird, athlete, or other target. Move the tripod head gently to avoid overshooting the target.
5. Adjust magnification: Once the subject is centered, zoom in gradually to your desired magnification (up to 60x). Refocus if needed. If the image shakes, reduce zoom or stabilize the tripod.
