Default Zeiss spotting scope

Hi All,

I just got a Quick Camera Adapter from Anacortes for my Zeiss 85mm
Diascope. I use a Canon G1 on it and the resolution is quite amazing
at 180x mag. The great thing about this set up is you can swing the
camera 90 degrees away from the eyepiece for visual use and swing the
camera back in a second to take the picture. It is great for children
since the camera can be used to point out subjects and detail that is
more difficult for young kids to appreciate looking through the
eyepiece.
