Jagdpanther from 1./schwere Heeres Panzerjägerabteilung 559, knocked out at point blank-range by a Canadian 6-pounder. As typical, Jagdpanther burned out after being hit giving severe burns to the crew as they were bailing out. Nieuwkerk, 7 October 1944.

That would seem quite optimistic with 10x magnification and 87 m/1000m field of view. Plus, it's showing ~60% of the 10 mil grid reticle.
Spoiler

The pictures are from the same negative, that's for sure.





Utenbach 1945.
