drew bedo Posted March 9, 2014 Share Posted March 9, 2014 <p>Years ago I saw an eyepiece adapter for a Tamron lens that allowed direct eye-ball viewing through the lens . . .as with a spotting scope. That was in maybe 1982. It just bayoneted onto the lens like a camera would. <em><strong>Anyone know of such an adapter for any mount lens today?</strong></em></p><p>I have just picked up an older Yashica Mirror lens and want to use it as a spotting scope. Another project would be eyepiece-projection in large format photography.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jean_yves_mead Posted March 9, 2014 Share Posted March 9, 2014 <p>There's an old <a href="http://www.photo.net/nikon-camera-forum/00HfRR">DIY lens scope adapter thread</a> on photo.net that might be of interest to you.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
