If they are in fair condition they go for $150 to $300 typically. I wonder what ATC in an airport tower generally use in terms of magnification and field of view? It took a bit of search to find one in very good condition which I finally found on the European eBay from a seller in Germany. 3* FOV which gives about 128m (great for helping get airplanes in sight at 10x magnification even if the peripheral view isn't sharp - but center is great). So I ended up with a Carl Zeiss Jena 10x50, made in DDR (serial number dates its manufacturing in about 1989, probably not long before the unification of East Germany with West Germany, so no more DDR). After some reading I figured I wanted something that would give me a wide field of view even at a 10x magnification, as well as a larger objective of 50mm to help gather just a little more light when there was less of it.Įventually I figured out what I didn't want and looked for something a little different. Lots of choices with a wide range of prices. So I wanted to get myself a pair of binoculars to look at airplanes in the airport's pattern and wherever else I could spot them. This particular example was produced in 1990 shortly after the Jena plant was acquired by Docter Optic who continued with this very successful model in their range.
