Baader hyperion zoom new adapters available (1 Viewer)

Baader have recently added some new adapters to allow the hyperion zoom to

be used on some more spotting scopes,

*************************************************************

Baader is doing six new adapters at present, to connect the Mark IV onto

several scopes having flgw. male threads:

T-2 (M42x0.75)/M48x0.75 /
M44x1 (Leica/Zeiss-Jena)/
M41.5x1 Bausch&Lomb/Opticron /
M41-1 1/4" (KOWA 770/880 to mount the Morpheus lineup) /
M53/M54 (KOWA 770/880 to thread the Zoom onto the KOWA 770/880)

*************************************************************

the above information was given to me by Baader who authorised me to publish it.


I have used the 41.5mm adapter to put the hyperion zoom onto a bausch

and lomb HDR60 scope , I did have a opticron HDF zoom on it but after

putting the hyperion zoom on it , it was like transforming the scope into a

65mm one as the view was wider.


I also used the 41.5 mm adapter to put the hyperion zoom onto a kowa tsn-2

which made the viewing more comfortable with a excellent image from min

to max.


I have used a 42mm adapter to attach a hyperion zoom to a japanese draw

scope, it was a 30x75 scope but the name disc unscrews to show a 42mm

thread so when the eyepiece is unscrewed ( which it does so easily) the

baader zoom can be put onto the 42mm threads using the baader 42mm

adapter.

The scope did give internal reflections using the zoom but I did manage to

reduce them considerably ( although not 100%) using a cardboard disc !!
