shown on the focus scale is at the highest value possible
and sharp focus is seen on the LCD screen.

and focus the object to its sharpest point by using the focus scale.

is sharp on the LCD screen, look through the spotting scope to see if the view
is also sharp. If it is not sharp, you can rotate the eyepiece in either direction
until it is sharp.
