Carl Zeiss combines spotting scope, digital camera with the PhotoScope 85 T* FL

Filed under: ,

Esteemed lens manufacturer Carl Zeiss is breaking new ground by releasing the PhotoScope 85 T* FL, a spotting scope that additionally serves as a seven megapixel digital camera — just in case “super-zoom” wasn’t suitable for you. With 15 - 45x magnification, a focal length of 600 - 1800 mm, a flip-out OLED display, and an

IR remote for vibration-free release, it’s great for birdwatchers but perhaps even better for the paparazzi. Look for it in Spring or Summer 2009 whether you’re planning to profit off the next Amy Winehouse meltdown.
