Hi Ken and Andy,
There are a lot of Cheapies on the market at this size, but fortunatley the optics on this little beasty are made by Ziess, originally for the eastern european market.
It runs down to 30cms for close work and has a field of view of 9.5 meters at 1000 very narrow but as it is oly for close work no problemlenm have attached an image of the thing but as I only have the one camera diff to take a shot with it on, wil try though.
The photo in the gallery of the Bombylius was hand held with this optic attached and has given a good account of its self. I find it VG for insects and flowers
