SLR Magic 12-36×50 ED spotting scope for Micro Four Thirds announced

Back in June I mentioned about the upcoming SLR Magic digital scoping solution with ED optics for Micro Four Thirds cameras. The product was delayed because of some changes in the design (adding a tripod collar). The spotting scope is now officially announced and available for sale on eBay.
