Does this adaptor work with 10x50 Jenoptems? (1 Viewer)

I haven't tried it on that particular model, but I've used it on many similar old Porros. It accomodates central shafts up to 15mm in diameter and needs at least 25mm between the hinges. I've only run into problems with a few binoculars. For instance, the Fujinon 8x30 FMTR-SX, which has unusually little clearance between the shaft and the prism housing and Zeiss Oberkochen 8x30/6x30 Porros, which have very short central shafts. The Jenoptem doesn't look like it will be a problem.
