John, I recommend that you take a look at the SRB-Griturn offerings, and
maybe give Ian Broomhead a call there. They have for a long time offered
spotting-scope mount devices, as well as all manner of other adaptors. Their
webpage lists m4/3 and 4/3 adaptors (T2) to which you add a suitable sleeve
- they have many different sizes listed here:
http://www.srb-griturn.com/digi-scoping-1-c.asp
- and if the size you need is not stocked, they can make it for you, just as
they made an L39-OM adaptor for me quickly, and reasonably priced. And
unlike the Novoflex adaptor I tried, it works!

Subject: [OM] Zeiss Diascope
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.
Regards
John Duggan,
