The metering field markings and the image field markings are located on two separate plates, the plate with the metering field marking is defined by a measuring field stop. The two markings differ in size and shape and are simultaneously reflected into the observation beam by means of a photographic ocular located in the picture taking beam and by means of optical components with partly or fully reflecting surfaces located before or after the photographic ocular. A holder (5a) seating in exchangeable manner the photographic ocular (5) is provided between the housing (24) of the attachment-camera and the binocular tube (25).
