ZEISS 85mm T* FL AOS LT Straight Spotting Scope, Black Finish

The 85mm T* FL spotting scope (1787884) offers the viewer excellent recognition of even the finest detail over long distances-undoubtedly the most important function of a Zeiss spotting scope.

This scope  provides you with a variable magnification from 20x-60x. With this eyepiece set to 60x magnification, you will see an object 326 yards in the distance as if it were just 16.3 feet away - with a clarity, definition and brilliance that are nothing short of spectacular. Heat mirage over the landscape or haze are the only conditions that can blur your view. At the shortest focusing distance of 16.3 feet the diascope becomes a powerful ”tele-magnifier“, allowing you to experience the fascinating world of small game in close-up - without disturbing them. The diascope and the eyepiece are supplied as separate units.

This model features a dual wheel which allows fast focusing and, if required, separate fine focusing - all with just one hand. The robust, water and dust-proof casing, made of a corrosion-resistant light metal alloy, ideally protects the diascope when used in rough terrain, safaris or tropical landscapes.

Rapid changes in temperature have no influence on its optical performance: the nitrogen filling prevents fogging of the lens elements inside the casing. Perfect function is guaranteed at temperatures between –2°F and +131°F.

To minimize vibrations during viewing, the tripod bracket on the spotting scope has been generously dimensioned. The bracket can be turned to the right and left, with clickstop positions at 45° and 90°, and it can be locked continuously.

That is the water repelling characteristic of surfaces, to simply let water drops pearl off and to repel dirt. LotuTec acts as protective coating and cleaning and care is made especially easy. The advantages are:
