Re: Fogging up of an eyepiece in colder weather?
Hello Dennis,
fogging of the eye lens in the eyepiece is a frequently encountered problem. Tthere are a few ways to circumvent it.
1. Eyepieces with a very long eye relief, like 20mm
2. Using the spotting scope eyepieces with the antifog multicoatings
3. Treatment of the eyelens with the Nikon Fog Eliminator wet tissues
On the cold nights I take the eyepieces ad 1. and 2.
Otherwise, I have the Nikon Fog eliminator in reserve.
Best,
JG
