Innovative New Zoom Eyepiece Takes you 4x as Close
Supreme high magnification means it is optimized for low dispersion and high resolution. Meanwhile, with its large exit pupil and overall high brightness, it is equally good in low-light low-magnification situations.
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 1850g 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 15-60X80 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!”
