Hello all.
 
I hope to learn more about old optics, German made pre 1945.
 
Back then they made some great optics, even with todays standard. Just great.
But, who was THE best maker? Zeiss?
Scopes?
 
Any one here who have and use it?
 
All information is good, I like to learnBig Smile

Ole or should I call you Zman,  you have quite a collection, good to see the pics.
 
How do your get away with placing those dirty old optics on those nice lacey tablecloths.
 
I am supposing you are married?  Must be to a saint, good for you.  I would not have that
opportunity. Smile
