Product information "Vixen POLARIE polar finder PF-L II with lighting"
A completely new type of polar finder for easy alignment: The Vixen polar finder PF-L II for the POLARIE Star Tracker shows the North Star and 2 other stars (Delta UMi and 51 Cep) in their true position. Simply align these stars with the reticle by turning the polar finder. The position of the North Pole will then be correctly displayed. Then all you have to do is set the North Star to the corresponding year mark. With the PFL-II, complicated alignment using the date and time is no longer necessary.
In the southern hemisphere, simply use the trapezoid (Sigma, Chi, Tau and Upsilon Octantis) of the constellation Octans and align the reticle with the trapezoid stars.
The polar finder is equipped with a built-in light that can be dimmed in several stages. This goes out automatically after 2 minutes due to the automatic switch-off. Compared to the previous model, the PFL-II also scores with improved edge sharpness.
