Hi all,
         I have recently acquired a Zeiss Diascope 65mm FL Spotting Scope along 
with the standard 35mm and 15/45mm eyepieces at half of the cost of a new 
spotting scope alone  (at UK prices)

The scope itself looks to be VERY well used body wise with chips and scratches 
to the paintwork BUT most importantly perfect optics. 
I think it was probably tripod mounted without body protection and took the 
inevitable scuffs and scrapes.

I intend finding a way to mount it on my 4/3 and micro 4/3 systems as well as 
using it for its original purpose. Has anyone used this scope, or can anyone 
comment on its optical performance ?
Using it with the supplied eyepieces it seems VERY crisp indeed. I have been 
looking for a decent spotting scope for some time and look forward to using it 
with my digital setup.
