Fixed magnification eyepieces are also available with generous eye-relief and fold-back rubber eyecups - ideal for spectacle wearers.

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.

FAQ
Please fill in the form below to ask a question.
Q1. Does it have BAK 4 prisms?
Yes. The manufacturer specifies Bak-4 prisms, though we are unable to determine the precise specification.
Q2. What is the diameter of the exit eyepiece glass and the eye relief?
The eye-lens has 23mm diameter. The eye-relief varies from 9-15mm, depending on the magnification set.
Q3. Is the padded case a "stay on" type?
The case is the stay-on type though it doesn't cover the eyepiece (a separate padded case is supplied for the eyepiece which clips to the main case).
