Anybody know what this might be?
It is advertised by a seller as:
Vintage Federal Anastigmat 3.5" f:6.3 - 32 Enlarger Lens No. 1265 with extras
but that is an enlarger lens with the sale. Seller has no knowledge of the the thing other than to say it was his fathers and might be related to astrophotography.

I have NO idea but likely not a microscope since miniscule movements are used for focus, and that helical groove is inches long.

Long focal lengths need larger movements?

Looking at the numbers round it, it looks like an eyepiece, the numbers being dioptre correction, the small size of the lenses definitely suggest eyepieces. The paint job and heavy construction would suggest military. The thing it fits into to focus is missing, maybe its a gunsight or something

Best guess is it's probably a rangefinding unit that is missing the outer tube.
Only way to find out for sure would be to buy it, and check for a scaled reticle.
Looks to be re-painted to my eye, but the rough edges under the paint could be soviet com-block mfr...
The chromed eye-pieces and Kodak close up filter are probably not related to it.

I think I brought this lens just few weeks ago. I can't see any other accessories around. That's what I got in the picture, just the lens only. Do anyone know where can I get the box?
