OptiOnAl EyEpiEcEs
The Regal M2 Series spotting scopes were designed to use optional 1.25” eyepieces. Celestron offers a wide
selection of 1.25” eyepieces for use on your spotting scope to achieve higher magnifications, wider fields of
view, etc.
BAlAncE plAtE (FOR thE 100 mm mOdEl)
The Regal M2 100 mm spotting scope comes with a
balance plate to properly balance the spotting scope
when attached to a tripod (Fig. 9). To use the balance
plate, mount it to the tripod’s ¼”-20 mounting screw
using the ¼”-20 threaded hole located on the bottom of
the plate. Attach the spotting scope to the balance plate
using the ¼”-20 mounting screw located on the top of
the plate and thread it into the spotting scope as far
as it will go. Slide the spotting scope along the slotted
portion of the plate until the spotting scope is balanced
on the tripod. Tighten the locking ring to hold the
spotting scope in the desired position.
digiscOping
The Regal M2 spotting scopes can be used for digiscoping with SLR cameras and point-and-shoot digital
cameras. Please note that not all cameras are compatible for digiscoping and in some cameras vignetting
(a circular image surrounded by black) will occur. Point-and-shoot cameras with an optical zoom of 3x or 4x
tend to be the most compatible with the least amount of vignetting. Most photographs will be the sharpest
and brightest when using the lowest magnification on the zoom eyepiece.
