[QUOTE="SDMF, post: 149399, member: 412"] Either the right eye diopter is out of adjustment or the collimation is bad. Right eye adjust: Pick an object, you can see well. I like something 50-100yds away with a little contrast so I can focus sharply. I also like to be able to rest the binos or at least lean up against something to improve stability. With both eyes open, cover the right objective with your right hand. Use the center focus wheel to focus on the object until it's sharply in focus. Next, look at the right eyepiece. There should be a "0" and a "+" turning one direction and a "-" turing the other. There should also be a reference mark on the binoc body. Line up the "0" with the reference mark. Now, with your left hand, cover the left objective and with your right hand, focus using the wheel on the right eye cup, NOT the center focus. Remove your left hand, both barrels of the binoc should now be in focus at the same time. Take note of the position and how much "+ or -" you need to be focussed. If the above doesn't solve your problem then it's likely your collimation (the alignment of the 2 tubes) is bad and they need to be sent in to the manufacturer. [/QUOTE]
