Ich habe dieses Modell in der Normandie gesehen und dann auch in Paris gefunden. Wenn man erst einmal anfängt, aktiv nach diesen Dingern zu suchen, bemerkt man, wie wenige unterschiedliche Arten es gibt. Derzeit entwickle und scanne ich einige schwarz-weiß-Filme die ich letztens in der Bretagne belichtet hab. Auch die zeigen wieder einige dieser ‘Touristscope’. Ich kann einfach nicht mehr an ihnen vorbei laufen ohne ein Foto zu machen.
Das oben gezeigte steht in Montmartre in Paris. Direkt vor der Sacre-Coer von wo man einen wunderschönen Blick auf die Stadt hat.

This picture is awesome!
It took me minutes to realize that this was a telescope and not a robot
Looks like an alien staring at you.
Thanks for your comments. These things are great. They are strange yet familar, resembling a face but none that we know of. So we see an robot or an alien, like you said. But most interestingly: To me they look friendly. I don’t know why. Maybe it’s just well done product design?
I would guess they look friendly, ’cause of the “big eyes” effect.
As far as I know ‘things’ with big eyes, compared to the rest of the head, remind us of babies, so there is some kind of (genetical?) affection for the ‘thing’.
Hi Tobias. I’ve heard about this baby’s eyes effect, but then forgot it. Thanks for pointing it out.
The same is used in comics, where cute characters have to have big, circular eyes.
Weird picture. But what the hell is this thing? I never seen one here in Indonesia.
It’s a kind of telescope/binocular which takes coins to use it. If you pay, you can look through, otherwise there is some kind of shutter closed. In Europe they are common in places often visited by tourist. I might post a shot from another perspective soon.
I’ve uploaded a shot with another perspective: http://8minutesold.com/?p=73
