Hello,

I have a Swarovski HD80 ATS and a DCA adapter. Has anyone successfully used a Swarovski 30X SW Eyepiece with a DCA? Any problems to be overcome?


Thanks,

Wanderer

Hi Wanderer,
The only problem you will face is that the DCA is made for the zoom eye piece as it is straight sided. The 30x eyepiece curves inwards making it difficult to tighten the screws on the DCA. I overcome this by wrapping some tennis handle tape aroung the eyepiece to pack it out so the screw will fasten.

Cheers Steve

Many thanks, Rockfall and Steve.

Good news except for my pocket!
