Asked Questions
What
is the best way to assure optimum focus with ProVision?
ProVision does not require you to focus on the specific object
you are viewing. The focus feature on ProVision is there to
adapt the unit to your eye. The best way to begin any job
is to look through ProVision across a room. Twist the focus
ring until you obtain the clearest image possible. The image
should appear as if you are looking through a screen door
because you are actually viewing your image
through 6,000 separate optical fibers. Once you have focused
ProVision to the best image possible looking across a room,
it is now ready to use in any other viewing situation. You
should not have to touch the focus ring again even for close-up
inspections. Sometimes best results are achieved without wearing
your glasses, as the high performance optics of ProVision
will adapt to most people's naked eye.
Can
ProVision be submersed in water?
The shaft of ProVision is sealed and can be submersed in water.
The handle of ProVision is not sealed and damage can occur
if water leaks into the handle.
Is
it possible to attach a camera to ProVision?
Yes, it is possible to adapt both video and still cameras
to ProVision by means of a C-coupler or C-mount available
from quality camera shops.
Is there a 45° mirror
attachment available that will allow me to look at a right
angle to the shaft?
Yes. A mirror is now available for the ProVision. Click

Does
it matter which way the batteries are inserted into ProVision?
No, as long as both AA batteries are oriented in the same
direction, polarity does not mater. We recommend Alkaline
batteries for best performance.
When
I look through the eyepiece of my ProVision, the image is
tilted what should I do?
No need to worry! This is a common occurrence. The shaft is
made of a continuous coil of steel, kind of like a spring.
Many times, after repeated bending, the coil relaxes a bit
and the image appears tilted. All you need to do is grasp
the end of the shaft, while looking through the eyepiece,
and twist the shaft end in the opposite direction the image
needs to move. Keep twisting until your image is aligned again.
