Right side view of the central portion of the Hensoldt ZF 3.5 - 26 x 56mm FF variable magnification riflescope. Note how finely subdivided the elevation and windage turrets are; the clicks are extremely near one to the other. It's a trade-off for the incredible 180 clicks per revolution the turret offers
