£2199.00

For birders and hunters alike, these are the scopes that re-define clarity, because -among their other impressive features- they boast a large 88mm Pure Flourite Crystal Prominar objective lens, which ensures maximum light gathering, clear visual range, and sharp images that traditional glass lenses can not attain in the field. The magnesium alloy body makes the scopes rugged, compact, easy to carry and handle, making them an ideal companion in the great outdoors. The waterproof housing meets the rigorous standards of JIS Protection Class 7; they are also charged with dry nitrogen gas to prevent fogging. (Eyepiece not included) More

Digiscoping tips
Due to the unrivalled high magnifi cations that can be achieved in digiscoping, it can be a challenging but also very rewarding method of telephoto photography. Try these useful tips to help you get the best from your digiscoping.
- Even the slightest movements can cause camera shake resulting in blurred images, try setting your D-SLR to mirror lock-up - this will help reduce vibrations when the shutter is fi red.
- A sturdy tripod with a good, smooth video panning head is highly recommended to keep your digiscoping setup stable.
- Use your cameras self timer or a remote control to fi re the shutter of your camera, the less you handle your camera whist taking the shot, the less the risk of camera shake.
- Good light is essential in digiscoping resulting in faster shutter speeds to help freeze the motion of your subject and minimise camera shake.
