Hello!, I usually read this forum but I never wrote. I want to do a question. I bougth a telescope, Fieldscope 25-75x82 ED Angled for the second hand. They told me that the eyepiece was 20x60 but i can´t move, is that possible?


I will try to put some pictures.

Sorry for my bad English.

I do not quite understand your question. You write that "they" have said that it would be a 20-60x zoom, but at the same time, you mention that you have purchased a 25-75x zoom. What is written on the eyepiece? For the ED82 it should be the 25-75x zoom (if it´s not a fixed eyepiece you have purchased!?).

Sorry it´s this one http://www.nikon.es/es_ES/product/s...ieces-fieldscope/13-30x-20-45x-25-56x-mc-zoom

The problem is that it does not move, it´s long time that is not used, I don´t know if is broken.

Ok, it is an older eyepiece (with magnification 25-56x) that I myself have never used together with the ED82. So I am not familiar with that specific eyepiece. If you can not turn the zoom ring, it is obviously something wrong with it. If I were you I would contact the seller and ask why he/she sold an inoperable eyepiece to you! Seems strange. Unfortunately I have no idea why the zoom ring is stuck because I've never heard of that problem before. Maybe someone else here knows!?
