    FFP!
    Adjustments in MRAD
    1-6 in a 30mm tube
    Zero Reset
    Zero Stop
    Capped or Uncapped with locking turrets
    Fixed Parallax
    3-4 Eye relief
    Reticle design that can support 556, 7.62x39 and 7.62x51 . Illumination is a major plus. Reticles should be adequate for quick ranging and hold over, but have a good balance of clean reticle and functionality. I can't stand reticles with hash marks or christmas trees up the ying yagn.

    Durability vs weight trade off... I want a scope to survive a drop or drag, but not major abuse. That said I'll take a tank over a china cup.

    Yes! This! 3-12x magnification and the ability to survive a drop off a cliff would be nice. (Don't ask. Just glad it was a vortex.)

    Any sort of non-bank-breaking compact scope for VZ58's and the like would be nice.

This would be a year long process at least, but just imagine what a piece of kit that would be.

    My Canon L series pro glass, and Cooke S4 cine lenses($25k a piece), can barely hold up against my Voightlanders for sharpness, aberrations and clarity, and they're for a Micro 4/3 system..... ohhhhh the possibilities....
    Oh yeah, my Fuji XE ll wears 3 voigtlander lenses, abosulutly one of my favourite lense makers.
    Get some!!! ^^

    This with an illuminated reticle. No more than 10 inches in OAL.
    If you do go with 35mm scopes, please have rings availble

    1-4X is good, but I think they are being outdated by 1--6 or even 1-8X

    Mil/mil or moa/moa no mix of turret and reticle please. And i like the 1-4 or the fixed 3.5 except not sure it needs to be 35mm objective. And the fixed power. Please have a graduated reticle instead of generic duplex reticle as an option.
