(Picture shows 80mm angled model)
The Acuter PRO series of compact waterproof spotting scopes are from the same company responsible for the critically acclaimed Skywatcher series of astronomy telescopes.
All models feature sharp, bright, high-resolution, multicoated optics and an 8-24mm zoom eyepiece (see table below for magnifications). Perfect for terrestrial observations of wildlife, birds, ships at sea, etc.
Fixed magnification eyepieces are also available with generous eye-relief and fold-back rubber eyecups - ideal for spectacle wearers.
Available with 65mm, 80mm or 100mm objective lens diameters and straight or 45° viewing angles.
Focusing is smooth and comfortable and the telescope tubes are covered with a protective rubberized paint finish for a secure grip and protection from the elements.
A T2 camera adaptor (Prod.Code 947) is available for the attachment of either SLR or DSLR cameras and can be used in conjunction with the zoom eyepiece supplied.
All models can be mounted on a standard photographic tripod via an integral tripod bush and are supplied with a quality padded carrying case.
“The Acuter is certainly a smart-looking spotter. Focusing was very smooth to the touch and we didn’t spend a lot of time re-adjusting it after changing magnifications because it stayed pretty sharp. Stars remained clear across a good 80% of the wide 2-degree field of view …The colourful double star Algieba was nicely split at 60x , and this was the only spotter to cleanly split Castor, despite it being a closer pair. Saturn was rewarding, with rings cutting across the disc, and Titan could be seen nearby. All in all we found this spotter did a good job when turned to the heavens.” BBC Sky At Night Magazine
