This allows standard 1.25" astro eyepieces to be mounted on a Swarovski spotting scope (mine was the Habicht 80 HD model).  I think all of the Swarovski scopes have maintained compatibility with the fittings, but I'm not sure.  This works well with the following caveats:

  • not all eyepieces will come to focus with the focus travel Swarovski scopes have
  • erecting prisms in the scope make high magnification eyepieces noticeably less sharp than straight through

I bought this from a specialty astro company in Germany and paid 100 Euro with another $45 bank transfer fees and another $40 shipping.  I'm selling for what I remember the price after currency conversion.  Shipping included in the continental USA.
