Introduction to Optics
#13
I recently purchased online, a set of used, WW2-era, former Swedish Army binoculars, made in 1942. They are Carl Zeiss, Jena, 6x30mm roof prism binoculars with individual focus. These were described as C- condition, and cost a little over $100US, complete with leather case. The condition downgrade was only for exterior finish wear where the brass casing shows through at sharp corners where the black crinkle-finish enamel has worn through. The optics are clear and sharp and there are only a few internal dust particles visible. The artillery ranging reticle is sharp and clear and the anti-reflection coating is undamaged. The body has arsenal inspection decals which indicates thatthese were re-ollimated, adjusted and passed by CVM in March of 1977. They were a great buy from Deutche Optik.
