Overview
New Ultra Wide Angle Zoom Eyepiece
With an ultra-wide-angle design, finding targets has never been easier at both high and low magnifications. The stable focal plane and eye relief during magnification changes, plus the minimal black field edge, make for an incredibly comfy viewing experience!
Fitted with a Hoya ED objective lens with lens coating that optimizes total light transmission to 85%+.
Total length of 400mm (including protective cover) and weight only 1820g with its light and sturdy magnesium-aluminum alloy body, the ultra-compact design makes PL short and light!
Precision focus wheel with mobility of 720°+ and integrates the ARCA SWISS (38mm) quick-release plate technology.
“We conduct monthly bird surveys with the Taiwan Endemic Species Research Institute in Budai and hold birdwatching activities on the third Sunday of each month. Using the Optisan PL ED scope helps both of these run smoothly. It’s our hope that through outreach activities, participants will develop an interest in birds, be it their appearance or behavior. To this end, Optisan’s smartphone adapter ring function is great. It allows participants to see images directly on their phones which really boosts interest. This fine piece of equipment is really great for use in public birdwatching activities!”
