Using Binoculars

[bathurst77]

Why is that whenever I look thru binos I always see double?
Tried lots of different one and I can never make them converge.
What am i doing wrong or have i just got weird eyes (or brain?)

Seeing double normally means they are out of collimation.

Does this happen in all binoculars you look through?

You have weird eyes & a weird brain - accept it & move on

serously i presume you are adjusting the two barrels to be the same distance as that between your eyes.

how many pairs have u looked thru? just the one/two or many -sorry is says you have tried lots - have you had people watching you, seriously your eyes must be weird -it is a problem for a small few

if its you pair of porro prisums then screw of the objective lens and slide the wire that holds the prisums to the middle and only slide the side thats not screwed down to the center.


im not talking about the cover that covers prisums im talking about were the prisums are if that doesnt work then make shore that your eyes are alind with the focal piont if that doesnt work see a docter i had the same problem but i collimated them to work for me i would rather less light then see double




ps make shore your not looking at a double star or to stars 1 degree a part
if non of this works i think your im 13 and i can work it out
