Nikon's FSA-L2 DSLR Digiscope Adapter converts an EDG Fieldscope into a powerful telephoto lens for use with an F-mount Nikon DSLR, so you can preserve those breathtaking views you've been enjoying. The FSA-L2 features a bright, crisp, and accurate optical system with fully multi-coated lenses and a 3.5x zoom. This zoom allows you to magnify the scene significantly. With an EDG 85 mm Fieldscope, the system tops out at 35x/1750 mm, while the EDG 65mm scope becomes 28x/1400 mm. When assembled, the focusing is done manually on the spotting scope, and the exposure is set automatically by the camera.
