Last week I bought a Zeiss Diascope 85T FL from the folks at Scope City in Las Vegas. They shipped it here to me in New York and now I'm testing it. It seems that you can focus it clearly up to about 3/4 of a block away. If you look any further than that it is blury. It's very good in short distances. I am able to focus on objects as close as 15 feet away very sharply. I really bought the scope with the idea that it had basically infinite focus. I had a spotting scope years ago and it would give you a clear view of objects at distances much greater than a block away. Am I missing something here? Are these birding scopes designed to be used from only a block or so away from the intended target? Do I have a defective scope? Any feedback would be appreciated.
Thanks
