How to Care for a Monocular
Source:Ruilong Time:2010-12-6A monocular is a low powered telescope similar to a binocular, only without two lenses or two eyepieces. Monoculars are great for hiking trips or bird watching trips when one doesn't want to deal with cumbersome binoculars. However, the care of a monocular can be a little tricky.
Instructions.
1.Read the enclosed directions about caring for your monocular. Those directions are tailored exactly for the kind of monocular you've purchased.
2.Watch for fingerprints. Fingerprints can make it hard for you to use the monocular quickly and effectively.
3.Wipe the lens with a soft, dry cloth designed for cleaning binoculars, monoculars or even glasses. Avoid using your shirt or another cloth, as this could scratch the lens.
4.Spray a few drops of photographic lens cleaner, Windex or even rubbing alcohol onto the cloth and use it to clean your monocular if you can't get the fingerprints off.
5.Keep the lens cap on when it's not in use to prevent scratches to the lens.
6.Store your monocular in a proper case designed for the monocular. Keep it in a cool, dry place to avoid any damage.
7.Take your monocular to a photography store or contact the place you purchased it from if you need a professional to clean the monocular or if there's dirt or dust you can't reach.
