Explore Scientific 50mm Finderscope Rings – Versatile Alignment for Precise Observing

Upgrade your astronomy setup with the Explore Scientific 50mm Finderscope Rings—a must-have accessory for securing and aligning your finderscope with precision. Available in three height profiles—low (1"), medium (1.5"), and high (4")—these brackets are designed to fit your specific telescope configuration while ensuring stable and gentle support for your 50mm finder.

Customizable Heights for Any Setup

  • Choose from low, medium, or high-profile brackets to achieve the perfect fit and alignment for your telescope and observing style.
  • Designed to elevate your finderscope securely while maintaining an optimal viewing angle.

Secure and Adjustable Design

  • Each bracket includes two durable rings with three adjustment points per ring, allowing you to fine-tune alignment for pinpoint accuracy.
  • Includes heavy-duty plastic thumbscrews with large, easy-to-grip heads, perfect for adjustments even while wearing gloves.

Quick-Release Functionality

  • The quick-release dovetail design allows you to effortlessly remove or install the finder bracket from your telescope without tools.
  • Perfect for astronomers who need to disassemble their equipment for transport or storage.

Streamlined Installation and Alignment

Setting up your finderscope is straightforward:

  1. Back out the thumbscrews to open the rings and slide your finder into place.
  2. Tighten the screws gently to secure the finder in position.
  3. Perform an initial daytime alignment by centering a distant object, like a streetlight or telephone pole, using a low-power eyepiece.
  4. Gradually refine alignment with medium and high-power eyepieces to ensure perfect synchronization between your finderscope and telescope view.

Pro Tips for Optimal Finder Alignment:

  • Daytime Adjustments: Start aligning during the day for easier visibility and less frustration.
  • Use a Bright Celestial Object: Once night falls, finalize alignment with a bright object like the Moon, Venus, or Jupiter.
  • Keep Tweaks Minimal: After your initial setup, you’ll only need small adjustments during future observing sessions.

Why Aligning Your Finder Matters

A well-aligned finder simplifies your observing experience, helping you locate celestial objects quickly and efficiently. Avoid the hassle of struggling to align your finder in the dark by taking the time to set it up during daylight. This extra step saves you time and enhances your overall astronomy journey.
