Celestron SkyMaster 15x70 Binoculars

Purchased these new from an ebay photographic supplier, they turn up today but other than a few mm give either way the focus ring won't move.

I'm assuming its a fault, but are there any users out there who might point out something I have missed!

I have some 15x70 skymasters and the central wheel should turn 1.5 revolutions moving the eyepieces outward by about half an inch. The right eyepiece also moves but only about half a revolution. Hope that helps.

Mark,

If all else fails, you could try a tiny squirt of "WD 40" on the focus rod.

The supplier has agreed to replace them so they are on there way back.

Glad your getting it sorted, I got mine from ebay too,

If its the same supplier, they seem quite good, they were very helpfull when I told them mine hadnt arrived, they traced them to the local post office where they had been for 4 days, apparently my postman couldnt be bothered posting a card thru my door to let me know .
