Abstract

A long-range optical sighting device includes a housing, which comprises an objective, an eyepiece, a reversing system and a target mark. The target mark illumination is switchable and controllable via an operating platform. The operating platform has one or a plurality of manually actuatable switches arranged on the housing in the region of the eyepiece, on the top of the housing in the operating position, and a power supply. Control electronics and a light-sensitive sensor system for detecting the ambient brightness are integrated in the operating platform and/or the housing in the region of the eyepiece. The operating platform comprises one or a plurality of light entrance openings for the light-sensitive sensor system in the direction of the objective.
