[. . . ] To get around this problem, a two-element lens, known as an achromat, was introduced. Each element has a different index of refraction allowing two different wavelengths of light to be focused at the same point. Most two-element lenses, usually made of crown and flint glasses, are corrected for red and green light. Blue light may still be focused at a slightly different point.

Image Orientation
It should be noted that the image orientation will change depending on the viewing configuration. When using the star diagonal, the image is right-side-up, but reversed from left-to-right. If inserting the eyepiece into the accessory adapter (i. e. , without the star diagonal), the image is inverted (upside down and reversed from left-to-right). For correct orientation through the telescope, which is important primarily for terrestrial observing, use the optional 45° erect image diagonal 1-1/4" (#94112-A).

Focusing
To focus your telescope, simply turn the focus knob located directly below the focuser. Turning the knob clockwise allows you to focus on an object that is farther than the one you are currently observing. Turning the knob counterclockwise from you allows you to focus on an object closer than the one you are currently observing. · If you wear corrective lenses (specifically glasses), you may want to remove them when observing with an eyepiece attached to the telescope. However, when using a camera you should always wear corrective lenses to ensure the sharpest possible focus. If you have astigmatism, corrective lenses must be worn at all times.
Aligning the Finderscope
Accurate alignment of the finder makes it easy to find objects with the telescope, especially celestial objects. To make aligning the finder as easy as possible, this procedure should be done in the daytime when it is easy to find and identify objects. The finderscope has a spring-loaded adjustment screw that puts pressure on the finderscope while the remaining screws are used to adjust the finder horizontally and vertically. To align the finder: 1 2 3 4 5 Choose a target that is in excess of one mile away. This eliminates any possible parallax effect between the telescope and finder. Adjust the screw on the finder bracket that is on the right (when looking through the finder) until the crosshairs are centered horizontally on the target seen through the telescope. Adjust the screw on the top of the finder bracket until the crosshairs are centered vertically on the target seen through the telescope. Image orientation through the finder is inverted (i. e. , upside down and backwards left-to-right). Because of this, it may take a few minutes to familiarize yourself with the directional change each screw makes on the finder.
Calculating Magnification
You can change the power of your telescope just by changing the eyepiece (ocular). To determine the magnification of your telescope, simply divide the focal length of the telescope by the focal length of the eyepiece used. In equation format, the formula looks like this:
Magnification =
Focal Length of Telescope (mm) Focal Length of Eyepiece (mm)
Let's say, for example, you are using the 20mm eyepiece.
