I recently obtained a new binocular for my collection. I have many porros
more than a dozen, mostly Nikon models.
This is the Carl Zeiss Jena 8x30W, Jenoptem, multi-coated, and it is in lightly
used condition, with the flat brown leather case.
I really like view, bright with a sharp center view, I don't wear glasses and it works just right for me as far as eye relief.
The ser. # is 6206783, and I would like to know the year of mfr., the seller
said 1985.
The only condition issue is one of the plastic eyecups has a chip out of it, and
if someone could give me a lead on a replacement, I would appreciate it.
I have always had respect for the older porro's and this one performs very well even today.

PS, you may notice my avatar, a very rare bird nest indeed. The eggs are colored because they are
pastel M&M's, yum, yum.
