Abstract
An optical viewing arrangement has an image recording function and each telescope tube thereof has a beam path through an objective and an ocular and has a sensor component assembly for outcoupling and converting a component light beam into digital data. A camera electronic component assembly (9) converts and compresses the digital image data of the sensor component assembly. The assembly (9) has a communications interface (10) for coacting with a communications interface (16) of an external remote-control unit (11) for digital data transmission. The interface (16) coacts with the interface (10) of the external optical viewing arrangement (1) for digital data transmission as well as a touch operator-controlled panel (15) for inputting and/or selecting operator-controlled functions, a microprocessor (24) for data processing incoming and outgoing data, a storage unit (17) for storing the digital data and a display (14).
