Let's say there's a dog really close to the event horizon of a black hole. And there is a man with a really huge spyglass that stretches from Earth to close of that same event horizon. The picture illustrates the situation. Looking through the spyglass, and considering time dilation, what will the man see? Will he see the dog from the perspective of Earth's time (in slow mo) or from the perspective of the dog's own time ("normal" time)? What exactly is going on here? What Mechanics, phenomena etc are involved?

It's the fucking same thing as looking at it from the earth. The spyglass doesn't do shit to the speed or direction the light's traveling in except make it look bigger

But the man would be looking directly at the dog (through the spyglass). Not from Earth. So he would see the dog from the dog's perspective of time. Not Earth's.

No. The light travels from the dog to the person. That's how vision works.
Going through a telescope does not change the speed at which the information propogates, and does not change the underlying mechanics of the light. It just bounces around the inside of the telescope for a while instead of empty space.

First of all it's a spyglass not a telescope
Second, you are wrong.

You're retarded

Light has to travel through the spyglass, just like it's have to travel through the vacuum of space, but if light's being shoveled into the event horizon, the guy won't see it. Whatever light available will be coming at him at normal speed, because light would be travelling at c.
