DSLR with zoom lens can be effectively used as a telescope

Photographer and traveler are to note!
DSLR with zoom lens can be effectively used as a telescope.
And view sharpening will be perfect
Look through the peephole, push the lens out for zooming, place focusing point on the object and make a half-press shooting button - the camera itself will set the sharpness

Фотографу-путешественнику на заметку!
Зеркалку с зум-объективом можно эффективно использовать как подзорную трубу.
И наведение на резкость будет идеальным
Смотрите в глазок, выдвигаете объектив, наводите на объект фокусировочную точку и делаете половинное нажатие кнопки съема - фотоаппарат сам наведет резкость
