Hello,

I purchased an APM 20/40x100mm 45deg binocular a few months ago which arrived out af collimation. I have tried to contact APM and Markus Ludes about this problem, but have so-far not received a reply. I would love to use this instrument now that I have a decent mount for it, but it is impossible with the miscollimation. Please let me know if you have any suggestions as how to fis the binocular. Thanks.

Hello All,

I received a reply from Markus Ludes today describing the proper collimation procedure. I will try it out as soon as time available and clear skies come together.
