I have this scope and the image is slightly blurred at all magnifications. Is there a way to focus it? Not the reticle, the image.

The parallax on this scope is set a one hundred yards so thats where it will focus in at. If you shooting at 25 yards you'll never get it to focus clearly. They do make scopes that will focus at all ranges but there designated as AO scopes and you pay a premium for that. I have this same scope in an AO version that I got from Optics Planet, Amazon doesn't appear to sell the AO version.

there is a knurled ring between the eyepiece and the magnification adjustment ring. it may be hard to turn but that is the focus ring.

sounds like you need to adjust the eye piece, " the lens nearest your eye ". There's a lock ring behind the zoom adjustment , loosen this ring and twist the eye piece to meet your needs. Hope this helps you.

It's probably working fine but you have to realize two things, it's designed for close work so if you have it too far away from whatever you're trying to view you're going to get the out of focus white circle. The second is if you have it close to or on top of whatever you were trying to look at you need to focus with the ring on the bottom. I thought mine was broken for a while until I figured out how to get it to focus. Finally you can also shift the focus when adjusting the magnification ring on top. If you change the magnification you will also need to refocus. Hope this helps

I am a new be, but when I received my scope the problem I had was getting the finder scope to match the telescope. My view was also blank. Using the wrong eye peice can cause the same problem. The wrong focal length, due to eye peice, and or the wrong eye peice tube. I had to fiddle with it for a while, I started with small tube, and large eye peice, focused the scope with the spotter scope, best view of the moon with out being there. Patience, dont throw it out. I hope I could be of help, trial and error

It's a microscope, so it seems to work best close up; otherwise you don't have magnification. With that said, I can focus in the lower magnification on an object about 1 meter away, but it isn't really magnified. The higher magnification requires me to be almost touching to focus. This isn't very scientific, I don't know enough about lens math to be, so I just tried it out around the room.

Hi Frank, I purchased this scope about 6 months ago and have had great luck with it. I dont care for the red and green back lights and shoot it with no lighting. As far as it changing when zooming mine doesn't do that. I would say you might have received a defective one since the reticle is separate from the lens and sounds as if it might be moving slightly when you zoom. Amazon is great about replacing items, shoot them an email.

You have to focus using the telescope. From the time you mount it the camera can only adjust ISO, the rest is fully manual.

I returned mine and bought a $60 spotting scope from Cabelas. This one is too soft/fuzzy/cheap to let you see clearly and when you zoom out the image gets smaller - its just awful

Twist the lens. It may be that it is indeed too low to get a good focus. If you twist the lens on mine, it comes into focus.

I have found there is really no proper way in how to focus the eyepieces. You just have to keep adjusting them, mess around with it until they are adjusted to your satisfaction. I wish I could help your more, but thats really all I can say.

That may be a defect in some units but I have never experienced that problem on the one I have. For the price it's hard to beat. If you do get a defective one return the scope for a repair or replacement one.

The eyepiece doe adjust for focus. It has a really fine adjustment, so you can get it very clear. Optics are very good for a scope in this price range. I'm not sure of what you want to know about the parallax. I set mine up on my .22 Mag and just sighted in as normal. Everything worked fine.

The scope has no method of brightening the view through it. I have never seen one that had this capability, but the Aim scope in question is bright, and the illuminated cross-hair is helpful for darker targets.

My scope had the same thing. I sent it back and they sent me an upgraded scope.

It has some range finding reticle, it does light up green and red. I have around 500 rounds through my .300 Win MAG and it still comes back to zero everytime. My scope is clear until right before max zoom.

You can see through the scope although it has no magnification. It only acts as a sight.

Well there are two possible problems. One is that you may have such a small magnification, such as anything smaller than a 50 mm lens, that you are too far away to actually discern any detail. Another problem that you may have is that you forgot to loosen the knob that locks the focuser. This is located near the bottom of the place that you put your lens in. If it is tight then when you turn the focuser, nothing will happen which would lead to blurry views. Hope this helped! Clear Sky's

Mine sighted right in no problem. Try remounting it and use a bore sighter, if you can't line it up without using too much adjustment it could be a problem with the sight itself.
