[QUOTE="paxtonm, post: 277523, member: 7409"] Hello, I just received a cover for my Diascope 85 that I am most pleased with. It is designed to remain on the scope in use, with zippers at the bottom for a tripod mount, around the objective lens and at the eyepiece/focusing mechanism area. The entire case is padded, and the outside is cordura nylon. Mine is in a dull brown, but they're also available in blue. The manufacturer is the producer of the "official" Kowa covers. Cost is $35 USD -- quite a bargain compared to the more than $150 Zeiss wants for an inferior cover. This cover is quite thoughtfully designed, with velcro patches to hold things just so when the scope is in use. It also has a sturdy webbing strap handle on top. The manufacturer is Creedmoor. A web url is [url]http://www.creedmoorsports.com/store/product.php?productid=16263&cat=269&page=1[/url] The cover to use is the one for the Kowa 821/823 if you have the angled scope. Straight is 822/824, I believe. [/QUOTE]
