Opticron Spotting Scopes

Specifically designed to offer improved levels of optical resolution compared to preceding Opticron models in a more compact & lighter chassis, the IS 60 is a highly competent spottingscope that is both easy to use and transport either on a lightweight tripod or bipod. Matched to one of the three dedicated IS long eyerelief eyepieces, (40916S 25xWA, 40918S 18-54x and new 40919S IS Pro 15-45x), the model is an excellent choice for the first-time birdwatcher moving up from 'binoculars-only' as well as the 100m plus shooter or archer looking for accuracy at 30x magnification and over.

The suffix SD for standard belies the quality of this tri-element F500 viewing platform. Utilising Opticron F-type high refractive index multi-coating complete with BK 7 prisms the ES 80 GA SD/45 demands serious consideration for anybody interested in an 80mm fieldscope. Image texture is slightly softer than sister ED model but the instrument deals competently with a range of interspersed colours in varying light conditions up to 60x magnification, combined with accurate focusing and a welcome lack of colour distortion.

The focusing system is designed to allow adjustment from infinity to 50 metres in just a 270° turn. Housed within the same mechanism for convenience is a 9:1 ratio accurate focus adjustment.

Built to withstand extremes in temperature, to operate unaffected by rain or humidity the models can be used almost anywhere from the Sahara to Antarctica. feature a high definition 5 element objective lens system, BK 7 prisms and a unique Opticron N-type multi-coating. This combination maximises colour contrast, clarity and definition especially at higher magnifications under a range of different light conditions. Other features include: retractable rubber covered lens hood, rotating tripod sleeve on all 45 degree angled models, easy-to-use rubber covered focusing wheel, sighting bar and the assurance of a comprehensive 30 year guarantee.

Fitted directly to the telescope in place of a conventional viewing eyepiece, the CMOS Wireless Telecam transmits high magnification real-time images from HR, ES & GS ‘scopes directly to a TV or PC Notebook fitted with an analogue TV card. As such it provides the opportunity to show real-time footage to groups in public spaces as well as offering the visually impaired an easier way of viewing through a telescope.

The unit features cable or wireless connection for flexibility in the positioning of the telescope in a hide or viewing area. Images relayed to a TV can be recorded directly to video while images relayed to a PC can be recorded if the TV card supports this option. Please contact us for more information.

Multi layer padded cases individually designed to fit each Opticron model. Protects the telescope while fitted to a tripod. Removable end caps and adjustable wide nylon strap. Please state scope model when ordering. Available for: HR, GS, ES, Imagic, Classic, Piccolo, and IS models.
