WTB: two Olympus G10X oculars (newer -1 diopter/smooth top version)

#1 Post by awa54 » Tue Aug 16, 2022 3:01 pm

Hello,
the subject title says it all, I'm looking for a pair of the newer type G10X oculars to fit an SZIII which came equipped with 20X oculars that I will likely never use.
I'm located in central Vermont USA.

Thanks!

If you do not find original Olympus ones, an acceptable solution IMHO are generic (unbranded) Chinese ones. Mine are marked WF10X/23 for eyeglass wearers. At least for observation - I rarely take photos. Outer diameter 30mm. I use them on my VMZ.

Thanks H46, I have a set of the older version, which are optically just fine, but the SZIII I have almost certainly had focus calibrated with the newer variant, hence the check to see if I can get a newer set, also that would allow me to pass the older oculars along with the scope they came on (VT-II).

Thanks to all who looked, I have now acquired a set of oculars and no longer need them!
