Carl Zeiss Jena Binoculars JENOPTEM 8×30
Multi-Coated Lenses
Superb Quality Wide View German Made Binoculars
Serial number 4957564 (1978)
production stopped in 1991
This is a fine top quality binocular that is in a good used condition.
No scratches on any lenses.
I can see only small areas of paint loss (mainly to large focus wheel)
The main focus wheel and right diopter adjustment operate very smoothly and correctly.
Both barrels show all glass elements free from damage.
Barrels are mainly clear and bright – see pictures
(in reverse view) one side has a few fine filaments (hard to pick out)
These binoculars are collimated for prolonged fatigue – free viewing
(no double image)
I found the collimation to be ‘very good’ with no eyestrain.
These are a superb pair of binoculars made by Carl Zeiss the world famous German optical manufactures.
The red velvet lined brown binocular case is also in a good used condition.
Around six stitches are missing on one bottom side of the case but all still very secure.
Both binocular and case straps are also in a very good condition.
Stamped – DDR (East German)
Constructed of brass, steel and aluminium, covered with black lacquer and leather, Bakelite eyepiece surrounds.
Wide angle of view to aid easy object location.
The Jenoptem 8×30 has been a long standing ‘classic’ binocular for many years!
These binoculars are both collectable as they are usable.
Binoculars will be well packed/padded.
Beware of far Eastern produced Carl Zeiss copies which have a six digit serial number instead of the normal seven. These copies also have a groove running along the circumference of the large central focus wheel.
Thank you
