To attach the DENZ Premium Optics to the DSMC2 RED EVF or RED COMPACT EVE, follow the steps below: 

  1. Remove the optics.
    • To remove the optics, hold the optics block with one hand so it does not fall when released; with the other hand, move the locking wheel counter-clockwise until you feel a hard stop.

CLEANING THE EVF SCREEN

NOTE:This section describes only how to clean the screen on the DSMC2® RED EVF and RED COMPACT EVF, and not how to clean the entire device.

The screen is accessed by removing the DSMC2 RED EVF/ RED COMPACT EVF Modular Optical Block.

Use an ionized rubber air bulb to clean the screen on the EVF. If there are still particles on the screen after using an air bulb, gently wipe the screen with a rolled-up, particulate-free, non-abrasive optical-grade wipe.

NOTE:Cleaning the screen without first removing solid particles increases the risk of scratching the screen. As with many screens, any type of physical contact with the screen may scratch the surface.
